Rigatoni Martino Recipes

Steps:

• Place tomato cream sauce, mushrooms and sun-dried tomatoes in a 10-inch skillet and heat over a medium flame.
• Heat rigatoni in clean, boiling salted water until hot (about 30 seconds).
• Drain pasta and add to skillet along with chicken and toss to coat pasta with sauce.
• Sprinkle romano cheese over pasta and toss again over a medium flame until sauce is a creamy consistency. Serve in a bowl.
• Top with Ricotta and green onions.
• Note: Tomato Cream Sauce - you can make your own spaghetti sauce or use jarred spaghetti sauce and add 1/2 cup heavy cream or half-and-half to the sauce. Heat through.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onions, salt. Cook until no longer white and starting to turn translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic; cook about 1 minute. Add chili flakes and blended tomato sauce. Bring to a simmer; adjust heat to medium to medium-low. Simmer gently, stirring occasionally, for 45 to 60 minutes. Reduce heat to low.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook rigatoni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes (5 minutes from doneness).
• Add about 2/3 of the basil to the sauce. Stir in butter. When butter melts, add cheese in 3 increments.
• Drain pasta; transfer to sauce. Stir until rigatoni are evenly coated with sauce. Serve sprinkled with the remaining basil and a dusting of grated cheese.
