Rigatoni with Sun-Dried Tomato and Fennel Sauce Recipe image

Provided by á-1228

Number Of Ingredients 10

Kosher salt
2 Tbs. extra virgin olive oil
1 cup chopped fennel (about 1/2 medium bulb)
2 medium cloves garlic, very coarsely chopped
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup lower salt chicken broth
1/3 cup drained oil-packed sun dried tomatoes, very coarsely chopped
1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1 Tbs. Pernod (optional)
1 lb. dried rigatoni

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a 10-11 inch straight sided saute pan over M heat. Add the fennel and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the fennel starts to soften and brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in 1 cup water and the cream, chicken broth, sun-dried tomatoes, pepper flakes, and 1 tsp. salt. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer briskly, uncovered, until the tomatoes are plump and soft, about 15 minutes Remove from the heat and stir in the Pernod, if using. Let cool slightly and then puree in a blender until smooth. Wipe out the skillet, return the sauce to the skillet, season to taste with salt, and keep hot. Cook the rigatoni until just barely al dente, 1 to 2 minutes less than package instructions. Drain well and return to the pot. Add the sauce and toss over medium low heat for a minute or two so the pasta finished cooking and absorbs some of the sauce.

I would make this dish again, but I would make a few changes. I would add more vegetables and I would use a different type of pasta.

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This recipe is a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I'll use less red pepper flakes next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my sauce turned out really bland. I think I may have used too much water.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover rigatoni. I always have some in my pantry, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use them for.

I'm not a huge fan of fennel, but I loved the way it paired with the sun-dried tomatoes in this dish. It added a really nice depth of flavor.

This dish is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's quick and easy to make, but it tastes like it took hours to prepare.
