This Mediterranean Herb Pasta is a delightful twist on a classic pasta dish, combining fresh and aromatic ingredients for a flavorful experience.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Using extra virgin olive oil enhances the flavor of the dish.
Add the chopped bell peppers and sauté until they begin to soften.
Cut the bell peppers into even pieces for uniform cooking.
Stir in the minced garlic and dried oregano, cooking until fragrant.
Be careful not to burn the garlic as it can turn bitter.
Cook the pasta in a pot of boiling salted water until al dente, then drain.
Reserve a cup of pasta water to adjust the sauce consistency later.
Combine the cooked pasta with the sautéed vegetables and tomato sauce in the skillet.
Toss the pasta well to coat it evenly with the sauce.
Serve the pasta warm, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
Adding a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese can elevate the dish.
