Direcciones
- Cook pasta as directed and set aside.
- Roasting your own bell peppers? NOTE at the end of this recipe. Roast/set aside.
- If using bouillon dissolve in 1000ml of hot water. Set aside.
- Heat oil in a pot. Add onion, pimentos, bell pepper, garlic and red pepper flakes.
- Sauté for 2 minutes.
- Add the broth, tomatoes, Italian herbs and black pepper
- Bring to a rolling boil then add the cooked pasta and zucchini and bring back to the boil for 3 minutes.
- Remove and serve hot or let cool for storage in chiller for up to 3 days.
- Freezing: If freezing for later use, portion into meal size packs or individual servings. Freeze up to 6 months. To serve, let thaw in refrigerator over night or quick thaw in a hot water bath or in the microwave being careful not to over cook due to microwave processes.
- NOTE: Roasted bell pepper store bought can be expensive. It is easy to roast your own peppers. I like to oven roast them but just holding them over a flame until charred will work well.
- For oven roasted just put pepper under the broiler keeping a egg on them and turning after they char on each side.
- To remove the skin just put them in a paper bag, close tightly and wait for 15 minutes.
- You can all put them a a bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap for 15 minutes. Either way will work.
- Make sure to remove the skin while they are still warm. It makes it easier.
