Zubereitung von Rotini Salad Nicoise Light
- Cook 8 ounces of rotini pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside to cool.
- While the pasta cooks, gently boil 1 (15-ounce) can of cannellini beans until tender-crisp (about 3-5 minutes). Drain well.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked rotini, cannellini beans, 1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes (halved), 1/2 cup Kalamata olives (halved or quartered), 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion, 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill (or substitute with 1 tablespoon dried dill), and 2 filets of anchovy (optional).
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1 clove garlic (minced), salt, and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss to coat all the ingredients evenly.
- Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
- If preparing ahead of time, store the salad in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Check seasoning again before serving. Enjoy!
