INGREDIENTS
Pasta & Base
- 🍝 8 ounces spaghetti or other pasta
Oils & Fats
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Vegetables
- 1/2 cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, drained
- 2 cups baby spinach
Condiments
- 🧄 3 cloves garlic
Dairy
- 🥛 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 🧀 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
STEPS
Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add spaghetti and cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, about 9 to 10 minutes, or to your preferred doneness. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup pasta water.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sun-dried tomatoes and cook until softened, about 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in garlic, and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Stir in heavy cream, and bring to a low simmer. Add Parmesan, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.
Add cooked spaghetti to skillet, toss until well coated. If too thick, add a small amount of reserved pasta water to achieve your desired consistency. Stir in spinach, cook until just starting to wilt, and season with salt and pepper.
Garnish with a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes and basil, and serve immediately.
