Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 red bell pepper, cleaned, seeded and cut into strips (6 ounces)
  • 1/2 pound thin asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1 cup sliced button mushrooms (4 ounces)
  • 1 cup grape or cherry tomatoes, sliced in 1/2 (6 ounces)
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken stock
  • 1/2 cup 1 percent milk
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, dissolved in 3 tablespoons water
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 large carrot (6 ounces) peeled and sliced into strips with a peeler (about 2 cups carrot ribbons)
  • 3/4 pound whole-wheat linguine
  • 1/2 cup (1 1/2 ounces) grated Parmesan
  • 2 tablespoons chopped parsley leaves
  • 1/4 cup shredded basil leaves

Directions

Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Cook garlic until soft, about 1 minute. Add peppers and cook until they begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Add mushrooms, asparagus and tomatoes and cook until softened, an additional 5 minutes. Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute more. Add chicken stock, milk, salt and pepper and bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer and cook until liquid has thickened slightly, about 5 minutes. Stir in carrot strips.

Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions; drain, reserving 1/2 cup pasta water. Toss pasta with vegetables and sauce. Add pasta water, if necessary, to loosen mixture. Serve garnished with Parmesan, parsley and basil.

    Yummy! I made this last night and it was a big hit with my husband. I had the leftovers for lunch today. I did add a few extras to the dish. I put in fresh herbs ( rosemary & oregano from my garden and a jalapeno to spice it up. Overall this is a great dish.
