Fettuccine With Avocado Tomato Sauce
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 hot red chili pepper, fresh, seeded and minced
- 4 tomatoes, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
- 3/4 teaspoon sea salt, fine
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 12 ounces fettuccine pasta
- 2 avocados, ripe, peeled and chopped
- 2 tablespoons lime juice, freshly squeezed
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (optional)
- Place a large pot of water on to boil.
- Heat the 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet, over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic and chili pepper; cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, salt & pepper and cook, stirring often, until the sauce has thickened slightly, about 10 minutes.
- Remove from the heat, and stir in the cilantro. Keep warm. Meanwhile, in a large pot of slightly salted water, cook the noodles until just tender, about 8-10 minutes. Drain well and transfer to a warmed serving bowl.
- Add the tomato sauce, avocados, 3 tablespoons olive oil (optional) and lime juice. Toss to mix well, and serve immediately.
