Ingredients:

Serving

4 garlic cloves, minced
4 tbsp olive oil
1 cup onion, finely chopped
2 large red bell peppers , cut into julienne strips
2 large yellow bell peppers , cut into julienne strips
2/3 cup dry white wine
2/3 cup sliced pitted kalamata olives
1 cup finely shredded basil leaves
1 lb rotelle pasta or 1 lb fusilli
6 oz mild goat cheese

Directions:

In a skillet, cook the garlic in the oil over moderately low heat, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until the onion is softened. Add the bell peppers, cook the mixture over moderate heat, stirring, for 5 minutes, or until the peppers are just tender, add the wine and olives.
Boil the wine until it is reduced by half, season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste and stir in the basil.
