Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 medium onion chopped
  • 6 cloves garlic minced
  • 3/4 cup dry white wine
  • 1 (28-ounce) can DeLallo San Marzano Style Crushed Tomatoes
  • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes or to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 (1-pound) bag DeLallo Orecchiette
  • 2 cups shredded cooked/rotisserie chicken
  • 1-2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 handful fresh basil chopped or torn
  • Pepper to taste
  • Freshly grated DeLallo Parmigiano-Reggiano

Directions

  • Add the olive oil and onions to a Dutch oven/soup pot over medium heat and sauté for 5-7 minutes or until softened and lightly browned.
  • Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
  • Increase the heat to medium-high, then add in the wine and let it bubble until reduced by half.
  • Stir in the crushed tomatoes, red pepper flakes, Italian seasoning, oregano, and salt. Once it starts to bubble, cover the pot with the lid slightly ajar and reduce the heat to a simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, boil a generously salted pot of water for the pasta. Cook it al dente according to package directions.
  • Add the chicken to the sauce and let it warm through for a few minutes
  • Stir the parsley and basil into the sauce.
  • Prior to draining the pasta, reserve about a cup of the hot pasta water.
  • Drain the pasta and add it to the sauce, tossing well, and adding in some of the hot pasta water to thin the sauce if needed.
  • Season the sauce with some pepper and extra salt if needed. Serve with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
