Wagon-Wheel Pasta & Goat Cheese
- 1/2 pound wagon-wheel (or any short) pasta
- 1 10-ounce box frozen lima beans
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 large onion, sliced thinly
- 2 tablespoons creme fraiche (or sour cream)
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh thyme (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 4 ounces creamy aged goat cheese, cut into small chunks
- 1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, then add the pasta.
- 2. After 5 minutes, add the lima beans.
- 3. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until browned, about 7 minutes.
- 4. When the pasta is ready, drain it with the beans (reserving 1/2 cup of the liquid), then return the pasta and beans to the pot along with the onion, creme fraiche, thyme (if using), salt, pepper, goat cheese, and the reserved water. Toss together and serve.
