Excellent recipe and so easy to make. The only variation is that I used 4 fresh tomatoes instead of canned. I had penne arrabiata for dinner at a fancy restaurant the other night and I have been craving it since, and this receipe tasted the same. I'm making it again tomorrow, and the best part is that it's so easy and quick. Thanks for sharing :)

What a great recipe JoyfulCook. It was very easy and quick to throw together. The flavor was outstanding. You could taste all the individual ingredients. I didn't change a thing, it was perfection, what a wonderful meal served with fresh homemade rolls and slow fried italian sausages. Thank you so much for sharing this keeper, which I will make again and again. :)
