Simple ingredients, simple techniques-and simply superb
results: Italian cuisine was made for busy weeknights. From
pasta to pizza to polenta, these recipes are quick and
mouthwatering. Start the meal off deliciously with Grilled
Zucchini and Mozzarella or Roasted Peppers with Caper
Dressing. Serve hearty soups as a main course-like a
vegetable-packed Minestrone with Arborio Rice. Everyone
loves a plate of pasta; it's a real family favorite. Other
vibrantly scrumptious dishes include Clam Risotto with Bacon
and Chives; Steamed Mussels with Tomato and Garlic Broth;
and Sautéed Chicken Breasts with Salsa Verde. And don't
forget the desserts, like Zabaglione with Strawberries and
Ricotta Ice Cream with Honey and Almonds. They make a sweet
finish to a wonderful dinner!
