Instructions

  1. 1
    Slice garlic thinly. Roughly break dried chilies (remove seeds if desired, or leave in).
  2. 2
    Warm olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté 2–3 minutes until light golden—don't brown.
  3. 3
    Add chilies, toast 1 minute until the oil smells spicy.
  4. 4
    Pour in passata (tomato sauce). Lightly salt. Simmer on low to medium heat 15 minutes uncovered until sauce reduces.
  5. 5
    Cook penne according to package directions until al dente. Reserve some pasta water.
  6. 6
    Transfer penne directly from water into sauce (with a splash of cooking water). Toss 2 minutes—starch binds the sauce.
  7. 7
    Roughly chop parsley and fold in. Serve with Parmesan or Pecorino.
  8. 8
    Drizzle cold cannabis olive oil over finished plated dish only.

Pro Tips

  • Arrabbiata means 'angry'—the heat is the point. For milder: fewer seeds, only 1 chili.
  • No cheese by tradition—authentic arrabbiata is cheese-free. Pecorino is the Sicilian variant.
  • Cannabis olive oil and olive oil harmonize perfectly—the dish tastes almost unchanged.
  • The pasta water trick is the sauce secret: starch emulsifies oil and tomato.
