Kendi's Kitchen: One Pot Pasta

Kevin does most of the cooking at the Kendi Haus (he is braver than me).  I've said it before and I'll say it again: I'm so lucky I married a man that can cook.

We've had this twice.  It's from Pinterest via Martha Stewart.  I was skeptical at first, but it turned out really nice.  Highly recommended for a quick dinner that will impress.

Cheers!

One Pot Pasta (link to Martha)

1 box of linguini
1 can diced tomatos
1 sliced onion
4-5 sliced garlic cloves (we always use more garlic than the recipe says)
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
some fresh basil leaves (we just grab some and go)
4 1/2 cups of chicken broth (we use the powder and and make our own)
2 tbsp EVOO
2 tsp oregano

Cut up you veggies, make the broth and get the spices.  Put everything in a big pot.  You don't have to cook the pasta first, just put everything in the pot.  Cover the pot and bring to a boil.  Reduce the heat to simmer for 10 minutes, covered.  Stir every now and then.  Cook until there's no liquid left, or just a little left.  Season with salt, pepper and Parmesan. 

You wouldn't think this would work, but the pasta cooks and it has a lot of flavor.  Makes great leftovers if you use the whole box of pasta.
