Penne all'Arrabbiata

CONTRIBUTED BY CELESTINO DRAGO
TOTAL TIME: 30 MIN
SERVINGS: 6

1 pound penne
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
6 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons crushed red pepper
One 28- ounce can crushed tomatoes
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt
2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley
Freshly grated pecorino cheese, for serving

In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the penne until al dente.
Meanwhile, in a large, deep skillet, heat 1/4 cup of the olive oil. Add the garlic and crushed red pepper and cook over moderate heat until golden and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add the crushed tomatoes, oregano and a pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Simmer over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until slightly reduced, about 8 minutes.
Drain the penne, reserving 1/3 cup of the pasta cooking water. Add the penne to the skillet and toss well. Add the reserved pasta cooking water, the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the parsley, season with salt and stir well. Transfer the pasta to shallow bowls and serve with the pecorino cheese.
