One Pan Pasta Recipe
This easy one pot pasta cooks the linguine, tomatoes, spinach, onion, basil, and garlic all in the same pan.
Prep Time15 minutes mins
Cook Time10 minutes mins
Total Time25 minutes mins
Servings: 4 servings
- 8 ounces linguine
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes sliced in half
- 2 ounces baby spinach
- 1 small onion finely sliced
- 3 garlic cloves finely sliced
- 1 handful fresh basil leaves roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 ounces parmesan cheese grated (optional)
- 4 cups water boiling
In a large deep pan, place the linguine in addition to the cherry tomatoes, spinach, sliced onions, garlic and basil. Drizzle the olive on top and season with crushed red pepper and salt. You can also add the spinach with the parmesan cheese so it doesn't wilt as much.
Pour boiling water into the pan and bring the mixture to a boil. Cook for 8–10 minutes on medium heat, stirring occasionally with tongs, until the liquid in nearly evaporated, creating a sauce.
Remove the pan from the heat and stir in Parmesan cheese and fresh basil, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy warm.
Notes: This recipe is adapted from Martha Stewart.
My Top Tip: Stir the pasta frequently. Since everything cooks together in one pan, the pasta can stick to itself or the bottom if you let it sit for too long.
Storage: Store leftover one pot pasta in an airtight container. It will last about 4–5 days in the fridge. Reheat on the stovetop or in the microwave with a splash of water to help bring the sauce back together.
