    1/2 cup dry red wine
    1/2 cup dry white wine

    1/2 teaspoon white pepper, ground
    1/3 cup virgin olive oil

    3 cups diced canned tomatoes with juice
    6 cloves garlic, minced

    Recipe



    Cool and drain pasta according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a preheated pot, add olive oil. Once olive oil is hot, add chicken and brown. Then add onions garlic, and all peppers to the pot. Cook for 8 - 10 minutes over medium heat. Next add basil, oregano, black, red, white peppers, and salt. Cook for an additional 8 - 10 minutes. Pour in diced tomatoes and tomato juice. Bring the sauce to a simmer and add red and white wine. Once sauce simmers again, cook for 15 more minutes. When pasta is done, drain in colander and lightly toss with 1 1/2 tablespoons of olive oil. Put hot, oiled pasta back in the pot and cover with the lid. Let stand. To finish tomato sauce, add parsley and mix well. Keep sauce hot. Add hot rigatoni to bowl and top with Cuban-style tomato sauce and serve. Sprinkle with Romano cheese. *Cuban peppers can be substituted for anahiem chiles or banana pepper. This recipe will also work well with ziti, cavatappi, rotelle or large shell pasta.
