Good recipe. Try adding some shrimp during the simmering time. I also tried it with Rotini pasta. Holds on to the sauce better, I think...

This was a great dish! I reconstituted sun-dried tomatoes rather than using the ones in oil. I used some of the "tomato water" while cooking, too. For a GREAT addition, try adding some roasted Pine Nuts!!!! I also nixed the roasted red pepper, and substituted roasted Chile de Arbol for the crushed red pepper flakes. DO NOT CRUSH THE CHILE DE ARBOL IF YOU USE IT! Just cook them in the sauce and remove them when you are done. They make a nice garnish to the dish as well.

This made for some really good eatin'(the words of my FIL). I love sun-dried tomatoes and this recipe really highlights them. Very easy to make and the sauce with the fresh basil is very delicious and well seasoned. I followed the recipe exactly and wouldn't change anything. Thanks Ashley U

This was an amazing dish! One of the best I have ever made! I couldn't find the sun dried oil packed tomatoes at the store so I just bought fresh tomatoes and cut them in half and then squoze out the juice like you would an orange and then chopped it and then continued on with the recipe like it said to and it worked out very well. If you do not like spicy foods, this probably won't be a favorite, but if you do, MAKE THIS TODAY!

I used the olive oil from the sun-dried tomatoes. I used just a little more cream. Very good recipe and very easy.

Wow!!! Was this good!!! Couldn't find the roasted red peppers so I made it without them. And it was still great!!! This is a favorite!!

This was wonderful! I made two changes: I roasted a fresh red pepper under the broiler and peeled the burnt skin off instead of using ones from a jar. I also didn't use any basil even though it's an important ingredient as I didn't have any - to replace it I sprinkled in some dried oregano which I prefer anyway. The result is a simple yet delicious meal! Thanks!

Yummy. This was good. Made it today for lunch. I didn't have any crushed red pepper flakes so I deseeded and chopped up a Thai chili pepper instead. I had fresh green beans, zucchini and carrots leftover from the Copycat Olive Garden Minestrone Soup recipe by Todd Wilbur. I julienned the zucchini and carrots and sauteed the vegetables together in butter and sprinkled in some garlic powder, salt and pepper for a quick side dish. And I threw one of those packaged loaves of Ciabatta bread in the oven too to serve with the pasta. Easy, quick and the kids loved it too!

A delicious and simple sauce that my family adored. I made this for our Christmas dinner. The only two things I change were the amount of pepper flakes (doubled that) and I used rotini instead of penne. Thanks for an easy and company worthy recipe
