You will absolutely want to devour this Spicy Penne Pasta | Gluten Free Recipes! Just a few ingredients and a few easy steps.
INGREDIENTS:
2 1/2 tbsp salted butter
1 cup chopped onion
2 tsp garlic powder
3 tbsp tomato paste
1 1/4 heavy whipping cream
1 1/2 tsp paprika
1 tsp black pepper
1 1/2 tsp chili flakes
1 1/2 tsp chili powder
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 cup pasta water
1 cups whole milk mozzarella
1/2 – 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
2 boxes of gluten free penne pasta
DIRECTIONS:
1. Boil pasta. Follow instructions on box. The pasta I used took 10 minutes and I added a little salt to water before boiling. When done set aside and remove water. Don’t forget to save 1/2 cup of pasta water.
2. Add 2 1/2 tbsp to a larger skillet. Set stove at about medium. Once butter is melted add chopped onions and caramelize. Onions will turn brown and be soft when caramelized.
3. Add 3 tbsp of tomato paste, 1 1/4 heavy whipping cream, and all dry spices. Mix well.
4. Add pasta water, mozzarella and 1/2 the Parmesan. Mix well.
5. Add pasta and mix.
6. Top with dried oregano and the rest of the Parmesan cheese.
Remember you can always add more cheese, butter or spices depending on your specific taste. Enjoy!!!
