食材

1 Bunch Curly Kale (stems removed and chopped)

1 Box Chickpea Germelli Pasta

3 Tablespoons Butter (salted)

2 Tablespoons Olive Oil

1 Lemon (diced into small pieces)

1 Lemon (juiced)

1/2 Teaspoon Kosher Salt

2 Tablespoons Butter (salted)

2 Cloves Garlic (grated)

步驟

Melt the Butter

To make this pasta salad, start by preparing the breadcrumbs. Heat a skillet, on the stove, over medium heat, and add in the butter.

Stir Breadcrumbs in Butter

Once the butter has melted, add in the panko breadcrumbs and stir to combine.

Add Lemon and Garlic

Then, add in the lemon zest, lemon juice, and grated garlic, and stir to combine.

Toast the Breadcrumbs

Toast the breadcrumbs until they're golden brown, watching them carefully so that they don't burn. Once they're done, transfer them into a bowl and set them aside.

Prepare the Pasta

Next, prepare the pasta according to the package instructions. Then, set it aside.

Melt Butter and Oil

Add the remaining butter and olive oil back into the pan, over medium heat.

Make the Lemon Butter

Once the butter has melted, add in the chopped lemon, lemon juice, and sea salt, and sauté for 5-6 minutes, until the lemons are fragrant and begin to caramelize. Then, remove it from the heat.

Prepare the Kale

Finally, wash and chop the kale into bite-sized pieces, being sure to remove the stems. Add them to a large bowl, then pour the warm pasta on top to help wilt the kale.

Add the Lemon Butter

Pour the caramelized lemon butter into the bowl and toss to fully combine.

Toss, Serve, and Enjoy

Grate the parmesan cheese on top, followed by the panko breadcrumbs. Toss once more to combine, then serve and enjoy!
