What could be easier than cooking pasta in sauce in one pot?! No need to wait for the water to boil: all the ingredients are combined in one pot, and as the pasta cooks, the sauce thickens and coats it perfectly. Linguine pasta in a fragrant pesto sauce with chunks of tomato and gooey mozzarella is perfect for a quick, delicious dinner after a day at work. For even more flavor, toss in some soppressata sausage.

- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 cup halved grape tomatoes (140 g)

We recommend
Recipes with similar ingredients: linguine pasta, grape tomatoes, pesto sauce, mozzarella cheese, sopressata, salami
Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Place the linguine pasta, olive oil, and 1 teaspoon of salt in a 4-quart saucepan and cover with 4.5 cups of water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally to prevent the pasta from sticking, until al dente, about 10 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes and pesto and stir until the tomatoes begin to soften, distributing the pesto evenly. Add up to 1/4 cup more hot water if the sauce is too thick. Remove from heat. Stir in the mozzarella and soppressata. Divide the pasta among 4 bowls and serve.
Note:
The success of this dish depends on the specific shape of the pasta, so we do not recommend substituting linguine with another pasta.
