This pasta dish features a luscious roasted red pepper and herb sauce, perfect for a quick and flavorful meal.
Cook the pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Reserve a cup of pasta water before draining to adjust the sauce consistency later.
In a blender, combine the roasted red peppers, cream cheese, garlic, basil, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth.
Blending the sauce thoroughly ensures a creamy and uniform texture.
Transfer the sauce to a saucepan and heat gently over low heat, stirring occasionally.
Avoid overheating the sauce to maintain its creamy consistency.
Combine the cooked pasta with the sauce in the saucepan, stirring to coat evenly.
Add a splash of reserved pasta water if the sauce is too thick.
Serve the pasta hot, garnished with additional fresh basil leaves if desired.
Serve immediately to enjoy the dish at its best.
