Gochujang Pasta

I live for an easy weeknight recipe that spices up the usual weeknight routine. This gochujang pasta is the perfect switch-up, it’s spicy, it’s creamy, it’s savory and oh-so-delicious. If you want to surprise your taste buds I would add this dish to your weeknight routine.

Ingredients

  • 6 oz Pasta of your choice
  • 1 TBSP Unsalted Butter
  • 1/2 Small Shallot, diced
  • 1 Garlic Clove, Minced
  • 3 TBSP Gochujang
  • 2/3 Cup Heavy Cream
  • 3 TBSP Freshly Grated Parmesan

Let’s Get Cooking

Fill a large pot with water + salt and bring to a boil. Cook pasta according to the package instructions. Reserve 1/4 cup of pasta water.

In a small pan, stir in 3 TBSP gochujang + garlic and toast for about 1 minute.
Stir in the 1/4 cup reserved pasta water and mix until smooth. Stir in 2/3 cup heavy cream and simmer for 1 minute. Add in the 3 TBSP of Parmesan and continue to simmer until the sauce slightly thickens.

Toss the pasta into the sauce until coated evenly.

Divide the pasta into the bowls and top with more parm.

Enjoy!
