How to Make Creamy Red Pepper Pasta
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread the red bell peppers on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until the skins are charred and bubbly. Let them cool, then peel off the skins.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente, usually 8-10 minutes. Drain the pasta and set it aside.
- In a blender, combine the cooled, peeled red peppers, heavy cream, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Blend until smooth and creamy.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Pour in the blended sauce and let it cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until heated through and slightly thickened.
- Add the drained pasta to the skillet, tossing it gently until every piece is coated in the luscious sauce.
- Plate your creamy pasta and top it generously with a ball of burrata. Finish with a sprinkle of fresh basil for added flavor and color.
- For an extra touch, grate fresh Parmesan cheese over the top just before serving for an additional layer of flavor.
