A culinary collision that defies tradition, this Chili Crisp Pasta alla Vodka is a bold reimagining of the classic Italian-American comfort dish. Where classic meets contemporary, the creamy, velvety tomato sauce encounters the fiery, crunchy complexity of chili crisp–creating a symphony of flavors that bridges continents on a single plate. Our smooth Spicy Vodka Sauce meets the electric heat and textural crunch of chili crisp, transforming a familiar favorite into an unexpected flavor adventure. Each twirl of pasta becomes a canvas for a cultural dialogue– the comforting nostalgia of vodka sauce dancing with the vibrant, numbing intensity of Chinese-inspired condiments.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound uncooked rotini (spiral) pasta or fusilli corti bucati (about 2 cups)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large onion, diced (about 1 cup)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 tablespoons chili crisp (amount divided in recipe steps below)
  • 1 jar (23.75 ounces) Prego® Spicy Vodka Sauce
  • 1 cup frozen green peas, thawed
  • 1/4 cup shaved Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh basil leaves

Instructions

  • Tips

    • The heat level of chili crisp can vary wildly between brands. Use more, if desired, according to your taste.
  • Step 1

    Cook and drain the pasta according to the package directions.  While the pasta is cooking, heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat.  Add the onion and cook for 6 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally.  Add garlic and cook, stirring, 30 seconds or until fragrant. Stir in 2 tablespoons chili crisp.

  • Step 2

    Add the sauce and heat to a boil.  Reduce the heat to low.  Add the cooked pasta and peas and toss to coat.  Cook until hot.  Stir in the Parmesan cheese and basil.  Serve drizzled with the remaining 1 tablespoon chili crisp. Garnish, if desired, with additional Parmesan and basil.
