Provided by mersaydees

Categories     Penne

Time 1h25m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/3 cup olive oil
6 garlic cloves, slightly crushed
1 (16 ounce) can whole tomatoes, undrained
1 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1/4 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes
1/2 lb penne pasta, freshly cooked
parmesan cheese
salt
pepper, freshly ground

Steps:

  • Cook oil and garlic in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat until garlic begins to sizzle.
  • Stir in tomatoes with their liquid, 3/4 cup parsley and red pepper flakes, breaking up tomatoes with the back of a spoon.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover partially and cook until tomatoes are thick and pulpy, stirring occasionally, about 1 hour 15 minutes.
  • Discard garlic.
  • Mix in remaining parsley.
  • Pour sauce over pasta and toss well.
  • Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe tomatoes for the sauce: This will give your sauce the best flavor. If you can't find fresh tomatoes, you can use canned tomatoes, but make sure to drain them well before using.
  • Don't be afraid to add a little heat to the sauce: A little bit of spice can really bring out the flavor of the tomatoes. You can add heat with chili peppers, cayenne pepper, or red pepper flakes.
  • Let the sauce simmer for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop. The longer you simmer the sauce, the better it will taste.
  • Use a good quality pasta: The type of pasta you use will make a big difference in the final dish. Look for a pasta that is made with durum wheat and has a slightly al dente texture.
  • Don't overcook the pasta: Pasta should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and unpleasant.
  • Add the pasta to the sauce, not the other way around: This will help to prevent the pasta from sticking together and will also help to distribute the sauce evenly.
  • Serve the pasta immediately: Pasta is best served hot, so make sure to serve it as soon as it is cooked.

Conclusion:

This penne with spicy red sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The sauce is flavorful and has just the right amount of heat, and the pasta is cooked perfectly al dente. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
