Directions
Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
Add the pasta and 1 teaspoon salt into the boiling water.
Cook the pasta until desired doneness, 8 to 12 minutes depending on your own preferences.
Drain the pasta well and return to the pot. Toss with a drizzle of olive oil. Set aside with the lid on.
Meanwhile heat the olive oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium high heat until hot.
Add the onions, stirring often, and cook until the onions are soft and browned about 5 minutes.
Add the brussels sprouts, and cook until softened, about 4 minutes.
Stir in the garlic and salami, and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes until the garlic golden and the edges of salami just starts to become brown.
Transfer the mixture into the pasta pot, and gently toss to combine.
Divide between two serving plates.
Top each with pine nuts and Parmesan cheese.
Server warm.
