Linguine And Broccoli With Sweet Onion Sauce
- 3/4 pound linguine
- 2 1/2 cups broccoli flowerets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 sweet onion medium, Vidalia, sliced thin, separated into rings
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup chicken stock
- 3 teaspoons cornstarch
- 2 teaspoons salt divided
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg fresh ground
- 3 tablespoons white wine I use Sauvignon Blanc
- 3 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese *optional
- Place large pot of water on to boil to cook linguine, follow package directions (about 12 minutes). I add salt to water while coming to a boil. While linguine is cooking, add broccoli for the last 5 or 6 minutes, depending on how firm you like your broccoli. I like 5 minutes (firmer broccoli). Drain well
- While the linguine is cooking, add olive oil to a non-stick skillet. Add separated rings of onion to skillet. Cook, covered over medium-low heat for about 10 minutes. I like to add a little salt to the onions while they are getting tender. Make sure to stir occasionally.
- In a measuring cup (2 cupper), add 1 cup milk (I use 2% when I like creamier sauce, feel free to use whole or skim), 1 cup chicken stock, cornstarch, 1 tsp salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Whisk it together and add to onion in the skillet. Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly (about 3 or 4 minutes). Stir in wine and mozzarella (optional), cook about 2 minutes or until cheese is melted. Add drained linguine and broccoli to skillet and toss to coat well.
- Serve immediately, topping nest of pasta with a sprinkle of shredded mozzarella if you would like to fancy it up!
