I obtained this recipe from an FDNY Firefighter cookoff. Very easy and very tasty! Ingredients:
1/2 cup olive oil |
6 garlic cloves, peeled and sliced thin |
6 -8 ripe tomatoes |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 bunch of fresh arugula (or basil) |
1/2 lb mozzarella cheese |
1 lb ronzoni penne |
parmesan cheese (to taste) |
dried chili pepper flakes (to taste) |
Directions:
1. Heat oil, add garlic and sauté until golden brown. Pour into a large bowl.
2. Chop tomatoes and toss with salt.
3. Cut arugula into strips and toss most of it with the tomatoes, saving some to top dish before serving.
4. Mix together with oil, tomatoes, garlic and greens while boiling slated water for pasta.
5. While pasta is cooking, cut mozzarella into small pieces.
6. Mix all ingredients with hot cooked pasta.
7. Sprinkle with remaining arugula and red pepper flakes.
