Pasta alla buttera is a spicy, thick, red sauce pasta that uses hot chili peppers, black olives, and pork that all blend together to create a savory sauce. If you want to be traditional, cook it with wild boar sausage like they do in Tuscany. Pasta all buttera is a one-pan dish perfect for a quick dinner because it only takes 20 minutes to make!
