Bring the taste of Italy to your table with these easy to make Italian recipes.
Shrimp
scampi- Shrimp scampi is basically shrimp covered in butter. It is both nutritional
and flavourful. The shrimp is cooked in a reasonable amount of butter to get
the taste and silky feel in the mouth of classic scampi. A garlic sauce with
lemon and pepper is added for even more flavour.
Pasta recipes
with Zucchini and Toasted Almonds- Fresh pasta from the refrigerator cooks faster
than dried. The pasta is mixed with a lot of zucchini, mint and marinated
tomatoes, with a sprinkle of almonds for extra crunch. Add a side salad for a vegetarian
meal or add cooked shrimp or chicken to create a one-dish dinner.
Filet Mignon
with Arugula Salad- A good steak needs very little preparation, which
is why it is fast to prepare this by sprinkling the meat with salt and pepper
and cooking for 8 minutes until it is done. The peppery flavour of arugula is a
nice accompaniment to steak, while the mushrooms’ earthiness complements it.
Serve with garlic bread or try small portions of pasta tossed with a little Olive Oil Mayonnaise or butter and
garlic.
Mediterranean
Salmon Salad- There are ways to use salmon other than cooked steak or fillet with some
veggies. Flaking the fish and incorporating it into a fresh salad adds nice
strong flavours to stand up to the salmon. The feta and olives are uncommon to
use with fish but their tangy acidity work.
Pasta recipes with Prosciutto and Spinach- Cheese
tortellini adds great creaminess and flavour to pasta and makes it simple.
Beyond the Pasta Recipes, you just
need to cook some spinach and toss everything together. You can also substitute
pancetta or bacon for the prosciutto.
Asparagus
and Chicken Carbonara- The thick, creamy sauce of a carbonara is a great
winter food. To make the eggs thicken and not curdle, adding a little pasta
cooking water to the mixture helps ensure the right consistency. If asparagus
is out of season, then broccoli or beans can be used instead.
Pork with
lemon-caper sauce- Crisp-crusted pork with the brightness of lemon and
the sharp bite of capers makes an excellent flavourful meal paired with a green
salad or steamed vegetable and pasta.
Pesto Caesar
Salad- This is a non-traditional take on a classic favourite. The creamy
dressing is infused with both the basil-garlic punch of pesto and the
lemon-anchovy pungency of a Caesar Salad Dressing. The salad makes a great lunch or a nice starter.
