Ingredients

  • 16 ounces linguine
  • crushed tomatoes 28-ounce can
  • vegetable stock 8-ounce container
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha hot sauce plus more for serving
  • 1 red onion large or two small, thinly sliced
  • 8 cloves garlic thinly sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper large, thinly sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper thinly sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 3/4 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon oregano ground
  • 2 cilantro sprigs, plus extra for garnish
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • black pepper freshly ground, to taste
  • 2 1/2 cups water
  • 1/3 cup Greek yogurt full-fat, optional, makes it creamy
  • lime for serving

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a VERY large pot (preferably heavy bottomed) combine linguini, tomatoes, stock, hot sauce, onion, garlic, red and green peppers, red-pepper flakes, cilantro, oil, salt, cumin, chili powder, oregano, pepper, and water. Bring to a boil over high heat.
  2. Boil mixture, stirring and turning pasta frequently, until pasta is cooked and the sauce has nearly evaporated, about 11 minutes. It may look like a lot of sauce when you remove the pan from heat, but trust me, it will soak into the pasta! Remove cilantro sprigs if visible. Stir in the greek yogurt.
  3. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Garnish with chopped cilantro and lime for squeezing. Serve at once!

Notes

  • A note on serving size: I typically can get 6 decent sized portions out of this recipe if I'm serving it with a small side salad. If you plan to serve this as the main dish with nothing else, I would say this will serve 4.
