This article was written by Erin Walsh.

With the blistering cold and phenomenal snowfall, this week was a long one.

Getting to work every day required a near Herculean effort, so forgive me if this recipe falls a bit short.

I decided to improvise and based this pasta on one of my favorite recipes from one of my favorite places, Narcisi Winery, outside of my hometown of Pittsburgh. This recipe is easy to make and a tasty midweek treat. My only suggestion is to maybe add a bit of chicken broth for moistness. Enjoy and stay warm.
