Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 ounces bow tie pasta (farfalle)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 28 ounces crushed tomatoes
- 1.5 cups heavy cream
- 0.5 cups grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Fill a large pot with water, add a generous pinch of salt, and bring it to a boil. Cook the bow tie pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large, deep skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat until the butter is melted and begins to bubble.
Add the diced onion to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until softened and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and sauté for another 30 seconds until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
Pour in the crushed tomatoes and stir well to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low.
Gently stir in the heavy cream, ensuring the sauce is smooth and creamy. Let it simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the grated Parmesan cheese, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to incorporate and continue to cook for another 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding a bit more salt or pepper to your preference.
Add the cooked bow tie pasta to the skillet and toss to coat evenly with the Palomino sauce. Heat for an additional 2-3 minutes to ensure the pasta is warmed through.
Remove from heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Serve immediately with extra Parmesan cheese on the side, if desired.
