CREAMY PASTA WITH RICOTTA AND HERBS

In this simple, springy pasta, milky ricotta thinned out with a little starchy pasta cooking water makes for a saucy, soupy dish that's seasoned with loads of black pepper and herbs. For the best flavor, use at least three different kinds of herbs, break out some nicer olive oil and look for fresh ricotta. Lemon lovers can grate in the zest of half a lemon as well.

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until al dente, according to package instructions. Reserve 2 cups pasta cooking water, then drain the pasta.
  • In the same pot, make the sauce: Add ricotta, Parmesan, olive oil, pepper and a large pinch or two of salt, and stir until well combined.
  • Add 1 cup pasta water to the sauce and stir until smooth. Add the pasta and herbs, and continue to stir vigorously until the noodles are well coated. Add more pasta water as needed for a smooth, soupy sauce. Taste and add more salt if needed.
  • To serve, spoon the pasta into bowls and finish with more Parmesan, olive oil and pepper.

Salt
1 pound short pasta, such as shells, cavatappi, chiocciole, farfalle, ditali or wagon wheels
12 ounces fresh, whole-milk ricotta (about 1 1/2 cups)
3/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan, plus more for serving
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
1 tablespoon coarsely ground black pepper, plus more for serving
2 1/2 cups coarsely chopped soft herbs, such as basil, chives, fennel fronds, parsley, mint, tarragon, chervil or dill (try for a combination of at least 3 kinds)

  • PREP: Before starting this recipe, thinly slice (1/2-inch thick) the mushrooms. Coarsely chop the rotisserie chicken into small bite-sized pieces. If desired, coarsely chop baby spinach -- just quickly run a knife through a few times. (It's fine to leave it whole too if you don't mind larger spinach pieces.)
  • PASTA: Heads-up: We are going to be saving some of the pasta cooking water so don't drain it all! Bring a large pot of water to a boil; once boiling, generously salt the water. (I add 1 teaspoon to every 4 cups of water; don't skip this or the whole dish will taste under-seasoned.) Cook, following package directions, but cook for 1 minute less than it says to (we'll cook the noodles more in a second). Right before draining, remove 1 cup of the pasta cooking water. (I do this with a glass liquid measuring cup). Drain pasta.
  • MUSHROOMS AND GARLIC: Meanwhile, heat a large skillet or pot (I use a deep 12-inch cast iron skillet) over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon oil. Once butter is melted, add in all the sliced mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally until the mushrooms start to turn a nice golden brown and all their liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (I add 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.) Add Italian seasoning. Once the mushrooms are nice and golden, add remaining 1 tablespoon butter and the garlic. Stir for another 1-2 minutes or until everything is nice and golden. By this time, you will likely be ready to drain the pasta.
  • FINISHING: Back to the skillet: Over low heat, add the entire container of the Boursin cheese, the chicken, and the drained pasta on top (right after it's been drained). Use tongs to briskly toss everything, while adding in small amounts of the reserved pasta water. (I usually add about 1/2 up to 3/4 cup.) Add Parmesan cheese and toss until everything is well coated, adding more pasta water as needed. Tossing while adding the pasta water should turn the sauce very creamy and should coat everything nicely while clinging to the pasta. Add in the spinach and gently toss with tongs to wilt. Once wilted, remove the pan from heat. Taste and adjust adding more salt and pepper as needed until the flavors sing.
