Caprese Pasta With Mozzarella Recipe - One-Pot Recipe
Well, another pasta dish request by a few. I love this dish for it is so easy and fast to make especially when you will be having a large group showing up with huge hunger pains. This dish gives you an awesome combination of cream and cheese that is guaranteed to please.
Now as for the one-pot issue, I give you an option for this in the description below. I like to add the pasta separately because in this way I can control the texture better of the dish.
Let me know how yours turned out and which method did you use.
Ingredients
10 oz. - Penne pasta (1/2 pkg.)
2 tbsp. - Olive oil
1 med. - Red onion, diced
3 to 4 cl. - Garlic, minced
1 cube - Chicken bullion, low-sodium
1/2 to 1cup - Cherry tomatoes, halved
1/3 cup - Cream, more if needed, milk or pasta water for a top-up.
1/2 cup - Parmesan cheese, shredded
1 cup - Mozzarella cheese, cubed or shredded
Salt and pepper to taste
Toppings - Fresh parsley or basil
Options - 2 tbsps. Balsamic vinegar
Alternative cooking method - One-pot
- Add 5 cups of water to the pot, add pasta and cook until dente (not too soft), reduce the amount of cream.
