Fideo - Cooked in butter and oil

Using your spatula, push the noodles around the skillet until well toasted. Our favorite part of this recipe is the lightly toasted and seasoned noodles. Toasting noodles brings out a delicious nutty flavor.

 

Fideo - Add the tomato sauce and broth

Stir in the tomato sauce and one full can of water. You can add additional water if necessary. You can also substitute chicken broth for the water instead of the soup base.

Fideo noodles in the grocery store

Barilla sells Fideo Cut Spaghetti. If you can’t find this type of spaghetti in your grocery store – break up angel hair or vermicelli pasta into small pieces. Either will work just fine for this recipe.

What Else Can I add to This Awesome Pasta Dish?

  • If you love meat with your pasta – sauté your favorite sausage and add to the pasta. Buy 1/2 lb. fresh sausage links and remove the out casings. Brown sausage in a small amount of olive oil.
  • Chic peas also make a delicious and healthy addition.

What is Vermicelli Fideo?

Vermicelli Fideo pasta is just the Vermicelli cut into thirds to make smaller cuts of pasta. If you can’t find the Fideo pasta noodle is your store, then just make your own using Vermicelli pasta.
