Cheesy Corn Beef & Cabbage Pasta

 


This corn beef and cabbage pasta dish is salty and briny from the crispy corned beef, sweet from the cabbage, and buttery and cheesy from the sauce. It’s even better the next day as leftovers. I love writing recipes that help my fellow home cooks explore their creative side but without the stress. Here’s a simple and fun 15-minute corned beef and cabbage pasta recipe.

Here are the short cuts that make this recipe so simple and quick: 

1. The first shortcut was using store-bought corned beef from the deli counter. When you crisp it up in the hot pan, the flavor intensifies.
2. Secondly, cabbage is a great ingredient for the busy home cook. Not only does it cook up in less than a minute, but when heated and crisped, it has a wonderful citrus-y sweet flavor.
3. Lastly, instead of a complicated sauce, we use just butter and parmesan cheese – all the flavor with little work!
  • Technique Tip: Make sure to season with salt and pepper every time you add a new vegetable to the pot. In this recipe, we salt and pepper the onions, and then salt and pepper again when the cabbage goes in. This is how restaurants make their dishes taste so good: each batch of ingredients is seasoned, so that every bite will make you go “wow.”

  • What a pinch of seasoning equals to in measurements: A pinch of salt or seasoning is approximately a teaspoon. Chefs, after seasoning, (unless raw chicken, meat, or fish) often taste to make sure that the flavor is to their liking. I, as a home cook, taste my dishes as well, but I’m doing all the tasting for you so you don’t have to worry about it.
