List of Ingredients
Penne Pasta With Pistachio Pesto Cream Sauce
I served blackened scallops with it. But you can also serve shrimp or whatever you
want!!!!
Serve this as a side dish or add shrimp to create an entree.
Serves 2-4
Pesto:
1/4 cup Basil, fresh
1/4 cup Parsley. Chopped
1 teaspoon Garlic, minced
1 Tablespoon Olive oil
1/4 cup Pistachio nuts, shells removed
1 1/2 cup Cream
1/2 pound Penne pasta, cooked
Place the basil, parsley, garlic, oil, and pistachio nuts in a food processor bowl. Pulse
until a coarse paste forms. Set aside. Heat the cream in a large skillet. Boil until the
cream begins to thicken. Whisk in the pesto. Toss in the cooked pasta. Check the
seasonings. Serve warm.
