Fiber: 13 grams
Net Carbs: 15 grams
2 1/2 ounces dried porcini mushrooms
1 cup boiling water
3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
10 ounces white mushrooms, cut into 1/4" thick slices
1 teaspoon salt, divided
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, divided
8 ounces Atkins Pasta Cuts Penne
1/4 cup sour cream
1/2 teaspoon ground paprika
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1. Cover porcini with boiling water. Let sit 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet over moderate heat, melt
butter in olive oil. Add white mushrooms, 1/2 teaspoon
salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook until almost dry and
mushrooms are tender, about 30 minutes.
2. Cook and drain pasta according to package directions.
While pasta is cooking, finish sauce: Remove porcini
mushrooms from soaking liquid; rinse, chop and add to
skillet. Place a coffee filter in a small strainer and pour
mushroom soaking liquid through it. Add strained liquid
to skillet. Cook mushroom mixture over high heat until
mostly evaporated but still saucy, about 5 minutes.
3. Stir in sour cream, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4
teaspoon pepper, paprika and parsley. Cook until
heated through, about 2 minutes. Toss with pasta and serve immediately.
Purchase porcini mushrooms dry and reconstitute them in
boiling water. Then use the soaking liquid to intensify the flavor
of the pasta sauce.
