One Pot Roasted Red Pepper Pasta

Directions

Thinly slice the onion and mince the garlic. Remove the red peppers from the liquid in the jar and then slice them into thin strips. In a large pot, combine the broth, onion, garlic, red pepper slices, diced tomatoes , basil, crushed red pepper, and some freshly cracked black pepper . Stir these ingredients to combine. Break the fettuccine in half, then add it to the pot, attempting to submerge the pieces as much as possible. Place a lid on the pot and turn the heat up to high. As soon as the pot reaches a full boil, give it a quick stir to loosen any pieces that may have stuck to the bottom, return the lid, and turn the heat down to medium-low. Let the pot simmer on medium low for 10-12 minutes, stirring every couple of minutes to make sure nothing sticks to the bottom. Return the lid as quickly as possible after each stir. After ten minutes, test the pasta to see if it is al dente. Once the pasta is tender, remove it from the heat. Divide the cream cheese into tablespoon sized pieces, then add them to the pot. Stir the pasta until the cheese melts in and creates a smooth sauce . Serve hot.
