Ingredients
410g (4 cups) penne rigate
1/2 yellow onion, finely chopped
15ml (1 tbsp) olive oil
60ml (1/4 cup) dry white wine
1 jar Rao’s Roasted Garlic Sauce
250ml (1 cup) 35% cream
Salt to taste
30g (1/2 cup) parmesan cheese
Freshly ground pepper to taste
Directions
Preheat a large pot of lightly salted water to cook the pasta.
Meanwhile, in a large pan, brown finely chopped onion in olive oil.
Deglaze the onions with white wine and reduce until almost dry.
Add Rao’s Roasted Garlic sauce and simmer gently for about 10 minutes.
Pour in the 35% cream and reduce the sauce for 2 minutes over low heat.
Cook the pasta, drain it, and gently mix it with the pink sauce.
Add half of the Parmesan cheese and freshly ground pepper.
Serve and sprinkle the remaining cheese over the pasta.

Tips and tricks

Use 35% cream when the sauce is acidic to prevent the cream from curdling and forming small white dots.
You can replace the white wine with chicken stock, vegetable stock, or a little white wine vinegar.
For a good al dente pasta texture, avoid overcooking it in boiling water, as it will continue to cook in the sauce.
