Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons olive oil
6 garlic cloves, sliced
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 cup pine nuts
1 cup roasted red pepper, diced
1/2 onion, chopped
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 1/2 cups chicken stock
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 lb pasta (I used bow ties)
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated

Steps:

  • Bring the water to a boil in a large pot.
  • Add the olive oil, garlic, red pepper flakes, pine nuts, sun-dried tomatoes and onion to a large saute pan set on high heat. Cook until the onion is soft and the garlic is beginning to brown, about 3 minutes.
  • Stir in the wine and boil until the wine is reduced by half, about 1-2 minutes.
  • Pour in the chicken stock, salt and pepper and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 7 minutes, until the sauce is slightly thickened.
  • While the sauce is simmering, cook the pasta in the boiling water until just tender. Drain the pasta well and return it to the pot.
  • Pour the sauce over the pasta and cook over medium heat for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat, stir in the cheese and serve.
