Making pasta on the grill is simple and adds a delicious smokey flavor to your dish.  By grilling it on the cooktop before boiling it, you add a nice flavor you can't get any other way.

As you have the grill hot anyway, why not add some shrimp or chicken!

INGREDIENTS

Your favorite pasta.
Pinch of Salt.
Pasta Sauce (your choice).
Grates parmesan.


PREPARATION

Fire up your Arteflame grill and get it ready to grill.

Add a pot of hot water to the cooktop and let it sit so it gets to a boil.  Add a pinch of salt to the water.

Add some cooking oil to the cooktop and put your raw pasta directly on the cooktop.  Stir and cook until it turns a golden brown.  (usually 10 - 15 mins.)

Let the pasta cool until the water boils.  Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook until al dente.  This will take longer than usual, about 15 mins.  Take the pasta out of the pot and drain the water.  Add the sauce and the grated parmesan.

This preparation will give the pasta a toasted, nutty flavor that goes well with understated sauces.

Enjoy!
