10-MINUTE SUN-DRIED TOMATO PASTA
Dinner is ready in 10 minutes with this creamy sun-dried tomato pasta! I use my favorite all-natural sun-dried tomatoes, and I skip heavy cream in favor of a little whole milk and starchy pasta water for a lighter sauce, but you can definitely use heavy cream if you prefer! If you're not worried about keeping this pasta dish vegetarian, toss in some shredded rotisserie chicken or leftover Italian-style baked chicken breast or skillet chicken.

Steps:
- Begin cooking the pasta. Fill a medium saucepan with plenty of water and season the water well with kosher salt. Bring the water to a boil and add the pasta. Cook according to package instructions, till al dente. Make sure to reserve some of the pasta cooking water before you drain the pasta.
- While the pasta is cooking, work on the sauce. Heat 2 tablespoons of good extra virgin olive oil in a large deep pan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the shallots, garlic, and a good pinch of salt and cook, tossing regularly for about a minute. Add the chopped sundried tomatoes and cook for another minute or so, tossing until the dried tomato bits have softened a little. Add the milk and a little bit of the pasta cooking water (about ¼ cup) and cook for another minute or two until warmed through. Stir in the oregano and red pepper flakes.
- Turn the heat off. Add in the pasta and Parmesan cheese, mix well to make sure the pasta is well-coated (if needed, add a bit more of the pasta cooking water). Taste and adjust the seasoning to your liking.
- Finish with the torn basil and serve immediately!

Steps:
- In a heavy skillet cook the garlic and the shallot in the oil and the butter over moderately low heat, stirring, for 5 minutes, add the tomatoes, the jalapeños, and salt to taste, and cook the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes.

GARLIC SUN-DRIED TOMATO PASTA
I love garlic so when I wanted a change from tomato sauce on my pasta, I threw a few ingredients in my frying pan and came up with this. Cut down on the garlic if it's too much for you. Add hot pepper flakes if you like spice. Cook vegetable of your choice with pasta if you want. Every time I make this, it's different. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your pasta dish. Look for ripe tomatoes, firm peppers, and fragrant garlic.
- Sun-dry your own tomatoes: If you have the time, sun-drying your own tomatoes is a great way to get the most flavor out of them. Simply slice the tomatoes in half, sprinkle them with salt and pepper, and let them dry in the sun for several days.
- Roast your peppers and garlic: Roasting the peppers and garlic will help to bring out their natural sweetness and flavor. You can roast them in the oven or on a grill.
- Use a good quality olive oil: Olive oil is an essential ingredient in this dish, so make sure you use a good quality oil that has a fruity, peppery flavor.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When you're cooking the pasta, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the pasta from cooking evenly and will make it more likely to stick together.
- Season to taste: Once the pasta is cooked, season it with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add some grated Parmesan cheese or red pepper flakes for extra flavor.
Conclusion:
This sun-dried tomato, garlic, and jalapeño pasta is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of flavors is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty pasta recipe, give this one a try.
