Categories     Penne

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 lb uncooked penne pasta
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 teaspoon salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 cup vodka
1/4 cup reduced-sodium fat-free chicken broth
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can no-salt-added diced tomatoes, undrained
1/4 cup whipping cream
3 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh basil

Steps:

  • Cook the pasta according to the package directions, omitting salt and fat. Drain and keep warm.
  • Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion to pan; sauté 4 minutes or until tender. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt, pepper, and garlic; sauté 1 minute. Add vodka; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 3 minutes or until liquid is reduced by about half. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt, broth, and tomatoes; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 8 minutes.
  • Place tomato mixture in a blender. Remove center piece of blender lid (to allow steam to escape); secure blender lid on blender. Place a clean towel over opening in blender lid (to avoid splatters). Process until smooth.
  • Return tomato mixture to pan; stir in cream. Cook 2 minutes over medium heat, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Stir in cooked pasta, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and basil. Serve immediately.

Avoid this recipe at all costs. The sauce was curdled and the pasta was undercooked. I had to throw the whole thing away.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. The sauce was not very flavorful, and the pasta was a bit undercooked. I think I would add more spices and herbs next time.

This pasta dish was a bit too rich for my taste. The sauce was very creamy and heavy, and the pasta was a bit overcooked. I think I would prefer a lighter sauce next time.
