Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 500°F (260°C) and place whole red bell peppers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast for 20-30 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skins are charred and blistered.
- Once roasted, cover the red peppers with aluminum foil for about 10 minutes to loosen the skins.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add a diced small onion and minced garlic, sautéing for about 7 minutes until fragrant.
- Add 1 cup of fat-free half & half and 4 ounces of garlic & herb goat cheese to the skillet. Stir gently over low heat until the cheese melts into the cream.
- Peel off the charred skins from the peppers, remove stems and seeds, chop the peppers into small pieces, and add them to the sauce along with 1/2 cup of grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese.
- Blend the mixture using an immersion blender or food processor until completely smooth. Return to low heat.
- Cook your pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain, reserving a little pasta water, and toss with the sauce.
- Serve warm, garnished with additional grated cheese and freshly chopped parsley.
