Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and reserve some pasta water.

  2. 2

    Make the Pistachio Pesto

    In a food processor, combine the pistachios, basil, garlic, Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Pulse until finely chopped. With the processor running, gradually add the olive oil until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine Pasta and Pesto

    In a large bowl, toss the cooked pasta with the pistachio pesto. If the mixture seems dry, add a bit of the reserved pasta water to reach desired consistency.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Divide the pesto pasta among serving plates. Top with pieces of burrata cheese and drizzle with extra olive oil if desired. Serve immediately.
