Ginger Garlic Linguine
My daughter can't stand tomato sauce, she always asks for buttered noodles. Unfortunately, I can't stand plain old buttered noodles. I guess I'm not a kid anymore. Here are buttered noodles a little less boring, a great side dish everyone can be happy about.
12 ounces uncooked linguine
5 green onions finely chopped
2 tablespoons fresh ginger
2 teaspoons minced fresh garlic
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Cook linguine according to package directions.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, saute the onions, ginger, garlic, basil and cayenne pepper in the butter for about 4 minutes or until the onions are tender.
Drain the linguine; add to skillet and toss to coat. Top with cheese. I usually add a little extra cheese... I also put extra on the table.
