Recipe
Heat a large sauté pan over high heat.Add the olive oil and heat.When
the oil is hot,add the ground chicken and cook until well browned,
stirring occasionally,about 8 mins.Add the onion,
garlic,carrots,celery,thyme,and chili flakes and cook until the
vegetables are softened, about 5 to 8 mins.Carefully deglaze the pan
with the white wine,scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden
spoon.Reduce until the white wine is almost completely evaporated. Add
the tomato sauce and juice and simmer until a thick sauce
consistency,about 20 mins. Season, to taste,with salt and pepper.Cook
the penne in boiling,salted water until al dente. Drain the pasta and
set aside.Add a few tablespoons of the pasta cooking water to the
sauce.Add the drained pasta to the sauce along with the Parmesan and
toss well.Serve in a large bowl garnished with parsley leaves.
***** that you can NOT substitute chili powder. Chili flakes are little
dried red peppers and they're much hotter than chili powder and don't
usually have the other flavors that chili powder does.Cayenne pepper
might work as a replacement.
