Since I began seriously experimenting with italian food, this is the sauce I was hoping to find. The addition of the chicken broth, creates a lighter tomato based sauce. The tomato complements the rest of the flavors rather than overwhelming them. Give it a try if you're looking for something different than your typical herb sauce. Another nice addition to this would be adding a few mussels to the sauce. It's a very traditional recipe.
Ingredients:
1 lb fresh farfalle pasta
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 garlic clove, crushed
1/4 teaspoon pepperoncini pepper
2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
4 tomatoes, peeled, seeded and cubed
1/2 teaspoon oregano
3 cups chicken broth (or vegetarians can substitute with vegetable broth)
2 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
Directions:
1. Heat the olive oil in a pan.
2. Add garlic, peperoncino, basil, parsley and oregano.
3. Sauté on low heat, then add the tomatoes and half of the broth.
4. Add your fresh pasta and stir continuously adding the rest of the broth on medium heat until pasta is cooked and the liquid absorbed.
5. Dress with Parmigiano and serve.
