Method

7 steps · 45 min

01
Cook the Pasta
Boil the pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain it well and set it aside.
02
Toast Pine Nuts
In a dry skillet, toast the pine nuts over medium heat until they're golden brown and fragrant. Keep an eye on them; they can burn quickly. Transfer them to a plate to cool.
03
Make the Pesto Base
Combine the artichoke bottoms, 1/4 cup Parmesan, Alouette Creme de Brie Fine Herb, Dijon mustard, garlic, basil, parsley, red pepper flakes, and 3/4 cup chicken broth in a food processor. Process until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
04
Adjust Consistency
If you prefer a thinner sauce, add more chicken broth, a tablespoon at a time, until it reaches your desired consistency.
05
Add Pine Nuts
Add the toasted pine nuts to the food processor. Pulse the blade a couple of times, just enough to break them into coarse chunks; you want some texture here, not a smooth paste.
06
Combine and Serve
Warm the artichoke pesto in a large skillet over medium-low heat, stirring gently. Add the cooked pasta and toss everything together until the pasta is evenly coated and heated through.
Serve immediately, topped with the remaining Parmesan cheese.
07
Serve Room Temperature
Alternatively, if you're making this ahead or for a picnic, the pasta can be tossed with the sauce and served at room temperature.
