INGREDIENTS

  • 1 28-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes
  • 3 TBSP olive oil
  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless chicken breast, cut into bite size pieces
  • 1/2 cup diced red onion
  • 3 medium garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, chopped
  • 1 habanero pepper, chopped
  • 1 serrano pepper, chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 orange bell pepper, chopped
  • 4 TBSP unsalted butter
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1 pound rigatoni pasta
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese plus more for serving
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • salt and pepper



DIRECTIONS

  1. Place a large pot of water and 1 tsp salt on the stove over medium-high heat. This will be for your pasta later on in the recipe.
  2. Pour the tomatoes and any juice from the can into a large bowl and carefully mash with a potato masher, set aside.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a dutch oven or large saucepot over medium-high heat.
  4. Generously season the chicken with salt and pepper and cook in the oil, stirring occasionally, until chicken is no longer pink, about 6 minutes.
  5. Add the onion, garlic, and all the chopped peppers to the pot. Stir to combine and cook, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes.
  6. Stir the mashed tomatoes, butter, and red pepper flakes into the pot and bring to a slight boil.
  7. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes.
  8. While the sauce simmers add the pasta to your boiling water. Cook your pasta a couple minutes shy of package directions (you want the pasta with a little bit of chew to it), about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  9. Stir the 1 cup Parmesan into the sauce, then stir in the heavy cream, and then stir in the cooked pasta . Add salt and pepper to taste.
  10. Serve topped with additional Parmesan cheese.
