Ingredients
  

  • 1 package pasta (12 ounces) penne or bowties
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 1/2 cups frozen peas
  • 1/2 cup broth vegetable or chicken
  • 1/4 cup white wine
  • 1 package Boursin garlic and fine herbs cheese (5.3 ounces)
  • 1/3 cup sundried tomatoes sliced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill or 1 teaspoon dried
  • 1 teaspoon lemon pepper seasoning
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts

Instructions
 

  • Cook the pasta in salted water according to package directions. Drain and reserve 1/4 cup of the cooking water.
  • Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and garlic. Cook the garlic just until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Add the frozen peas, broth, and wine. Bring the mixture up to a boil. Stir in the Boursin cheese.
  • Add the cooked pasta, sundried tomatoes, dill, lemon pepper, and a grind of fresh pepper to the skillet and toss to coat.
  • Add half of the Parmesan and toss well. If the sauce is too thick, add a bit of the reserved pasta water.
  • Garnish with pine nuts and sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan.
