The sharp tang of the lemon juice matched with the sour olives and the sweet onions highlights tonight's version of refrigerator sweep. I really liked this combination, but remember cooking is a Creative Sport. Ingredients:
1 cup cooked green beans |
1 cup cooked chicken meat, diced |
1 cup dry pasta (i like the shape of rotini) |
1/4 cup spanish olives with pimento |
1/4 cup onion, diced |
1 lemon, juice of |
2 tablespoons olive oil (divided) |
1 tablespoon butter |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper |
1/4 cup water, from the pasta pot |
Directions:
1. Start 2 cups of salted water to boil.
2. Pour the juice of the lemon over the green beans and set aside until needed.
3. When the water is at a rolling boil, add the pasta and stir for at least 15 seconds.
4. Add 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil and Butter to a deep sauce pan and melt.
5. Add the onions and saute until nearly transparent.
6. Add the rest of the ingredients except the pasta, water, and pepper.
7. When the pasta is done (about 8 minutes) pour 1/4 cup of the cooking water into the pan and drain the rest.
8. Add to the pasta and then the pepper to the sauce pan and continue to cook over low heat for 2 more minutes.
9. Serve.
