Preparation
Boil the pasta
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Add the pasta; stir gently to separate.
- Boil, 10 to 11 min., until al dente.
- Reserving ½ cup cooking water (double for 4 portions), drain and toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking. Reserve the pot.
Mise en place
- Meanwhile, halve, core and thinly slice the sweet pepper lengthwise.
- Lightly crush the croutons into large crumbs.
Sauté the vegetables
- Remove the kale leaves from the stems; roughly chop the leaves.
- Mince the garlic.
- In the reserved pot, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high.
- Add the garlic, kale, sweet pepper, spices and S&P. Sauté, 4 to 5 min., until tender.
Make the sauce & combine the pasta
- To the pot, add the cream, demi-glace, pasta, ½ the cheese, ½ the reserved cooking water and 2 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions).
- Cook, stirring constantly, 1 to 2 min., until combined.
- If the sauce seems dry, gradually add the remaining cooking water until you achieve your desired consistency.
Plate your dish
- Divide the pasta between your bowls.
- Garnish with the croutons and remaining cheese. Bon appétit!
