Ingredients
8 oz uncooked pasta
2 tbsp butter
½ tbsp flour
3 cloves garlic (minced)
½ cup dry white wine or chicken broth
½ tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp lemon juice
½ tsp Italian seasoning
½ cup chopped Sun-dried tomatoes
¾ cup heavy/whipping cream
⅓ cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
2 cups fresh baby spinach (packed)
Salt & pepper (to taste)
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook pasta until al dente.
In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat.
Stir in flour and garlic; cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Whisk in white wine (or broth), Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and Italian seasoning. Simmer until reduced by half.
Add sun-dried tomatoes and cream. Let it gently bubble for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened.
Stir in parmesan cheese, then add spinach and cook until wilted.
Toss the sauce with drained pasta (add a splash of pasta water if needed). Season with salt and pepper, then serve immediately.
Notes
Oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes add extra richness—drain slightly before using.
Reserve pasta water to adjust sauce consistency.
Add grilled chicken or shrimp for extra protein.
For a lighter version, substitute half-and-half for cream.
