Ingredients:
Serves 4
- 8 ounces linguine or spaghetti
- 1 TBS olive oil
- 24 ounce jar marinara (or your favorite sauce type)
- 1 1⁄2 cups water
- 1⁄2 tsp dried oregano
- 1⁄4 tsp dried basil
- 1⁄8 tsp salt
- 1⁄8 tsp pepper
- 1⁄2 cup sliced pepperoni
- 1⁄4 cup mini pepperoni
- 1⁄2 cup mozzarella cheese
Instructions:
Step 1: In a large skillet or pot over medium heat, add olive oil, marinara, water, oregano, basil, salt, pepper, and sliced pepperoni (reserve mini pepperonis); stir to combine. Add pasta and bring sauce to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook for 20-22 minutes, or until pasta is al dente, stirring occasionally (stir every 5 minutes or so to prevent pasta from sticking and ensure it’s covered with sauce).
Step 2: Once cooked, remove from heat, stir, add mozzarella cheese and mini pepperonis. Cover and let sit for 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
Step 3: Serve and enjoy!
Notes: Be sure to stir pasta occasionally while cooking to prevent sticking. If pasta seems to be getting dry while cooking, add a bit more water.
