Gremolata pasta

[patriot45]

A great pasta side dish to serve! We used it with braised beef short ribs with mushrooms and broccoli, I'm stuffed. Oh and before you start on me poli, yes there was some grease, but what ya gonna do! :D

1 package linguini, cooked as directed

Combine this and toss with cooked pasta:

1/4 cup parsley
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp minced garlic
minced zest of 1 lemon
S & P and red pepper flakes to taste

Served with short ribs!

Sounds good. I wonder how it would be if fresh basil were substituted for the parsley? I'm looking for ways to use basil. I bought a basil plant at Whole Foods about 3 weeks ago for $2.99. With all the rain the thing is getting to be a small bush, on its way to becoming a tree. :D

Last week I went back and got a tarragon, a red basil and a dill plant. I'm just waiting for them to become little trees, also.. I love tarragon with chicken or veggies and made a good noodle dish with the dill.
