SIDE Parsley Noodles with Lemon-Garlic Drizzle

We love this side for its simplicity, but don’t be fooled--it is packed with flavor and nutrients (what with all that parsley) and makes a perfect addition to any leftover meat that you might have on hand. If you want to splurge, buy the fresh pasta noodles in the cheese department.

Ingredients

1 pkg egg noodles (or vegan wide noodles)

1 Tbsp unsalted butter

½ bunch flat-leafed (Italian) parsley, rinsed and chopped finely

1 pkg chives, chopped finely

1 lemon, juiced

2 cloves garlic, whole

2 tsp salt, divided

½ cup packed basil

½ cup olive oil

Instructions

Cook noodles per package instructions minus 1 minute.
While cooking, puree in a blender or food processor the following: lemon juice, garlic, half of salt, basil and olive oil. Set aside until ready to use.

Once cooked, drain and toss with butter and the rest of the salt.

Transfer to a serving bowl, toss still-warm noodles with parsley and chives.

To serve, drizzle with homemade pesto.
