List of Ingredients




1 pound portabella mushrooms*
12 ounces fettuccini pasta (uncooked)
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 teaspoon salt, divided
3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 can (15 ounces) crushed tomatoes in puree
1 cup chicken or vegetable broth
8 ounces (about 1-1/2 cups) fresh asparagus or green beans, sliced
diagonally in 1-inch pieces

Recipe




Bring a large covered pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, slice portabellas;
halve each slice. To boiling water add fettuccini; cook until barely tender,
about 10 minutes. In a large nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil
over high heat. Add mushrooms; cook and stir about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with
1/4 teaspoon salt and the black pepper. Remove to a plate; cover loosely to
keep warm. In the same skillet, heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Add garlic
red pepper and remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt; cook and stir over medium heat
until garlic is golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Immediately add crushed tomatoes and
chicken broth. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium and simmer uncovered
to blend the flavors and thicken the sauce, about 5 minutes. Add asparagus;
cover and cook until barely tender, about 1 minute. Stir in cooked mushrooms
and any accumulated liquid. Drain pasta; place in a large serving bowl or in
individual bowls. Spoon mushroom mixture over pasta. Sprinkle with chopped
parsley, if desired.

*If using portabellas with stems, remove stems, trim and thinly slice. For a
lighter colored sauce, scrape out mushroom gills with a spoon.
