  1. 1

    Roast Peppers and Prepare Ingredients

    Stem red bell peppers, halve, seed, and remove ribs. Place peppers on prepared baking sheet, skin side up. Drizzle with 1 tsp. olive oil and a pinch of salt and massage oil into peppers. Roast in hot oven until slightly charred and tender, 20-22 minutes.

    Remove peppers to a cutting board. Replace foil on baking sheet and reserve.

    While peppers roast, mince garlic.

    Halve baguette lengthwise.

    Peel and halve shallot. Slice thinly.

    Crush croutons into coarse crumbs.

  2. 2

    Cook the Pasta

    Once water is boiling, add pasta and cook until al dente, 8-10 minutes.

    Reserve 1/2 cup pasta cooking water. Drain pasta in a colander and set aside.

    While pasta cooks, make garlic bread.

  3. 3

    Bake Garlic Bread and Cut Bell Peppers

    Combine 1 Tbsp. olive oil and half the garlic (reserve remaining for sauce) in a mixing bowl.

    Place baguette on re-foiled baking sheet, cut side up. Spread olive oil-garlic mixture on cut side. Bake until golden brown, 5-7 minutes.

    While garlic bread bakes, cut roasted red peppers into 1/4" dice.

  4. 4

    Make the Sauce

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat. Add 1 tsp. olive oil and shallot to hot pan. Stir often until shallot begins to caramelize, 3-5 minutes.

    Add remaining garlic and red pepper flakes (to taste). Cook until aromatic, 30-60 seconds.

    Stir in pasta cooking water, cream, tomato paste, and roasted red peppers and any accumulated juices. Bring to a simmer and stir occasionally until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 2-3 minutes.

    Season with 1/2 tsp. salt. Remove from burner.

  5. 5

    Finish the Dish

    Combine pasta and Parmesan with sauce until pasta is completely coated.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, garnishing with crushed croutons. Bon appétit!
