Ingredients:
  • 400g spaghettini
  • 18.20 gm extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 red onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 long red chilli, seeded, finely chopped

  • 250g punnet cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) dry white wine
  • 1/4 chopped parsley
  • 1 jar basilico pasta sauce
Instructions:
  • Prepare the spaghettoni by cooking in a large saucepan of salted boiling water until al dente according to package instructions. Drain thoroughly.
  • Heat oil in a large nonstick pan over medium heat. Sauté onion for 3-4 minutes, then add garlic and chili and cook for 1 more minute, stirring occasionally.
