Ingredients
- 8 ounces Angel hair pasta
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 3 units Garlic cloves
- 8 ounces Baby bella mushrooms
- 1 cup Low-sodium vegetable broth
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the angel hair pasta and cook according to package instructions, typically 4-6 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Step 3
Finely dice the yellow onion and mince the garlic. Slice the baby bella mushrooms into thin pieces.
Step 4
Add the diced onion to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes, until softened and translucent.
Step 5
Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Stir well and cook for 5-7 minutes, allowing the mushrooms to release their liquid and reduce in size.
Step 6
Pour in the low-sodium vegetable broth. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Step 7
Season the sauce with salt and black pepper to taste.
Step 8
Add the cooked angel hair pasta to the skillet and toss gently to coat the noodles in the sauce.
Step 9
Stir in the freshly chopped parsley and a teaspoon of lemon juice for a bright finish.
Step 10
Serve immediately, topped with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
