This is a flavorful pesto dish that I have created. Ingredients:
1 pound penne pasta |
2 bunches fresh basil leaves |
1 cup roasted red pepper |
3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese |
1 cup olive oil |
salt and pepper to taste |
Directions:
1. Bring a large pot with lightly-salted water to a boil. Stir the penne into the water and return to a boil. Cook until the pasta is mostly tender but still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes; drain. Transfer the drained pasta to a large bowl.
2. Place the basil, red pepper, and Parmesan cheese in the bowl of a food processor; stream the olive oil into the mixture as it blends until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle the sauce over the cooked pasta and toss to coat.
