Instructions

Roast Your Veggies

Preheat oven to 400F.
Place red peppers, peeled garlic clove, and halved onion on a foil-lined baking sheet. Roast for 40 min, turning every 10 minutes or so as the tops darken.
Once the peppers are blackened and slightly collapsed, remove the vegetables from the oven. Place the peppers in a paper bag. Close the paper bag and let the peppers steam for 5-10 minutes. (This will make them easier to peel.)*

Make The Pasta And Sauce

While the peppers are cooling, heat a pot of water to boiling and cook pasta to al dente according to the package instructions.
Once the peppers are cool, remove them from the bag, peel and de-seed them. Place the peeled peppers, onions, and garlic in the bowl of a food processor and blend until smooth with salt and basil.
Toss pasta with red pepper sauce, and top with extra basil if desired.
Serve with a side salad.
