Broccoli and Feta Radiatore
- 2 cups dried radiatore
- 2 medium stalk broccoli
- 1 12 cups medium brown button mushrooms
- 1 organic lime
- 3 garlic cloves
- 14 cup olive oil
- 34 tablespoon kosher salt
- 34 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 ounces feta, crumbled
- Wash broccoli, mushrooms, and lime.
- Chop the head of the broccoli so florets are approximately mushroom-sized.
- Cut the stalk clear of any 'bad' parts and slice into about 1/4 inch thick pieces.
- Set aside.
- Cut off the mushroom stems and quarter the caps.
- Set aside.
- Zest and juice the lime, also set aside.
- Fill a medium-sized pot half way with water, bring to a boil.
- Add radiatore and cook for 6-8 minutes.
- Drain, don't rinse, and set aside.
- In a medium skillet, heat olive oil over a medium-low heat.
- Mince garlic and add to pan.
- Let sizzle for about 20-30 seconds (we don't want burnt garlic) and add lime zest.
- Quickly throw broccoli into pan and saute for one minute, then add mushrooms.
- Add 3 tablespoons lime juice, 1/2 tablespoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and toss.
- Cover and simmer for 4 or 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat.
- Add broccoli and mushrooms and crumbled feta to radiatore in medium saucepan.
- Add remaining lime juice, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil and toss over a low heat until pasta is hot again and the feta has begun to melt.
- Remove from heat and serve in warm bowls, or chill and enjoy as a pasta salad.
