How simple, you ask? Real Simple! Because I think we have fully established that I LOVE pasta, I do not need to explain why I am sharing yet another pasta dish with you. However, I have not yet shared that I am also a huge fan of artichokes. Being a member of the artichoke fan club, of course, led me to select this recipe and assume it would be nothing short of amazing.
Truth be told, I must admit that the end product on this one tasted a little too simple. Not horrible, by any means, but just a little blah. Chris and I discussed what might be missing, and decided that some chicken would be a welcome addition. I also thought some cherry tomatoes might be nice, but Chris wasn’t sure about that. A little salt and pepper did go a long way in making this dish more flavorful, but I wouldn’t make it again without trying one of the above-mentioned ingredients.
If someone tries this and switches it up a bit, please let me know!
Slainte!
Enjoy!
Chicken would be excellent or shrimp. I love artichokes too. Mushrooms are good. To make it more like scallopini you could also add capers and small pieces of prosciutto ham (sliced & packaged in the deli section). The kind of cheese that you use could make a difference.
