This is a pasta recipe I've been cooking forever. I've changed it slightly over the years, but it's basically the same sauce I've made since I was a teenager. Ingredients:
1/2 medium yellow onion, finely chopped |
4 garlic cloves, minced |
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can tomatoes, diced |
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can tomato sauce |
1 (6 ounce) can tomato juice |
2 tablespoons basil, chopped fresh |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 tablespoon parsley, chopped fresh |
fresh ground black pepper, to-taste |
1 teaspoon salt |
2 chicken breasts, grilled and sliced |
2 cups penne pasta |
parmesan cheese, grated |
Directions:
1. Sauté onions in olive oil until translucent.
2. Add garlic and cook for one more minute.
3. Add tomato, tomato sauce, tomato juice, black pepper, salt, basil, and parsley.
4. Once sauce boils reduce to simmer and add grilled chicken.
5. Simmer until pasta is cooked.
6. Cook penne pasta in boiling, salted water.
7. Strain pasta and add to sauce.
8. Serve topped with Parmesan cheese.
9. Notes:.
10. Add red pepper flakes for arabiatta.
