Nutrition per Serving
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp. butter
- 4 tbsp. olive oil
- 3 onions
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1/2 tsp. sugar
- 1 lb. portobello mushrooms
- 3 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 tsp. fresh-ground black pepper
- 3/4 lb. ziti
- 3 oz. soft goat cheese
- 3 tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- In a large frying pan, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter with 2 tablespoons of the oil over moderate heat. Add the onions, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, and the sugar and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are well browned, about 20 minutes. Remove from the pan.
- In the same pan, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter with 1 tablespoon of the oil over moderate heat. Add the mushrooms and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and brown, about 8 minutes. Add the reserved onions, the parsley, the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and the pepper.
- In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the ziti until just done, about 13 minutes. Reserve 3/4 cup of the pasta water and drain. Toss the ziti and 1/2 cup of the reserved pasta water with the mushroom mixture, the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, the goat cheese, and the Parmesan. If the pasta seems dry, add more of the reserved pasta water. Serve with additional Parmesan.
- Wine Recommendation: While the mushrooms need a red wine, the goat cheese goes best with a wine that has plenty of acidity. A pinot noir from Oregon is an ideal choice for both.
