Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the red bell peppers in half, remove the seeds, and place them cut-side down on a baking sheet. Roast for 25-30 minutes until the skins are charred and blistered. Allow them to cool before peeling off the skins.
- While the peppers roast, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain the pasta, reserving some pasta water.
- In a blender, combine the roasted red peppers, heavy cream, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Blend until smooth.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Pour in the pepper sauce and let it simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the drained pasta to the skillet, tossing to coat evenly with the sauce. If too thick, add a splash of reserved pasta water.
- Serve the pasta in bowls topped with burrata cheese, allowing it to melt slightly.
- Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
- Optionally, serve with grated Parmesan cheese.

Notes
Feel free to customize the pasta by adding spinach or sun-dried tomatoes for extra flavor and nutrition.
