1/2 teaspoon cayenne

  1. Cook pasta according to packaging; drain and set aside.

  2. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and cook 4 minutes, until softened. Add garlic, thyme, cayenne, pepper, and basil; cook on low for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  3. Add hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, tomato, sugar, and broth. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook 30 minutes, until liquid is reduced by half.

  4. In a separate small skillet, heat butter over medium heat. Add shrimp and cook 2 minutes, until light pink. Add to pasta sauce and cook 5 minutes, stirring to combine thoroughly. Add the cooked pasta and toss well with the grated cheese. Serve topped with fresh grated cheese and green onions.

Serve this wholesome pasta with a side of steamed broccoli or a green salad. Red wine works best with the tomato sauce; try Chianti or Zinfandel.

Recipe had plenty of heat from the cayenne, but no flavor. Will definitely not make this recipe again.
