Quick Penne with Basil Marinara Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  • Add the pasta and cook according to package directions, about 9 minutes.
  • In a large, nonstick saute pan over medium, combine the marinara and red pepper flakes and bring to a simmer.
  • Sweat the onion and garlic in the microwave in the liquid for 2 minutes on 30 percent power.
  • Add to marinara and pepper flakes.
  • Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes, or until it is reduced and slightly thickened.
  • Remove the marinara from the heat. In a small bowl, stir about 1/2 cup of the marinara into the Greek yogurt until it is smooth to temper it, then whisk the yogurt mixture back into the marinara in the saute pan.
  • Drain the pasta and add it to the pan, tossing to coat. Add the basil and season with salt and pepper, if necessary. Sprinkle with Parmesan.
