Tucci Night
Hey Friends, This coming Wednesday we start month two of our celebration of all things Italian and who better to focus on but our beloved Stanley Tucci! Each month we will be featuring different Italian dishes but will always include the dish that Tucci said “Changed my life”….Pasta all Nerano. This simple dish, is based upon what I consider one of the most boring vegetables on God’s green earth…zucchini. But to my shock, the first time I tried this recipe I discovered that it transforms this lowly veggie into something quite astonishing, if not addictive as I’ve found myself making it for a late supper at least once a week. I am featuring two new dishes this month. The first is Tortellaccis stuffed with rich, braised short ribs topped with a sprinkle of Parmigiana, napped with a Sage Brown Butter Sauce, and drizzled with a White Truffle Infusion. The second is the classic Fettucine Alfredo tossed with Grilled Mary’s Chicken Breast, Pecan-wood smoked Bacon and Sweet Peas. I hope you can join us for what I call “A mid-week, culinary transport without leaving San Juan Capistrano!” David 2.0
