Mostaccioli Puttanesca Style

POINTS: 5
MAKES: 6 servings
CRISPY RATING: Don't be turned off by the anchovies - this has a great flavor with a little kick to it.

Ingredients

  • 2 Ounces Anchovy Fillets, canned, with capers and olive oil
  • 2 Cloves Garlic, minced
  • 28 Ounces Stewed Tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 Cup Fat-free Beef Broth
  • 1 Cup Olives, pitted and sliced
  • 6 Oz. Tomato Paste
  • 1/3 Cup Chopped Fresh Parsley
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper
  • 12 Ounces Whole Wheat Penne Rigate - dry, uncooked

1. In large skillet, heat anchovies with their oil and capers and garlic; cook 3 minutes.

2. Stir in remaining ingredients except pasta; heat to boiling, stirring occasionally to break up tomatoes. Reduce heat; simmer 30 minutes, stirring occasionally as it reduces.

3. Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions; drain.

4. Mix pasta into sauce. Serve with whole wheat rolls and salad.

MY NOTES AND THOUGHTS:

1. This goes together incredibly easy, though you will have tomato splatters all over your stove when it's done. ;)

2. Let it simmer - it will thicken and the flavors will intensify.

3. This is a good one to use whole wheat pasta if you're still getting used to it because the pasta is well covered with sauce.
