Buca Di Beppo Penne Cardinale

Submitted by Cook4_6

"I found this recipe on another website and made it for dinner. It was absolutely fabulous! Make sure you use a dry white wine, and the red pepper flakes should be adjusted down if you don't like things spicy! My husband shared leftovers with co-workers the next day and they gave it rave reviews as well!"

This is a very tasty recipe! I made it spiced as written and the whole family loved it and rated it 4's and 5's. We like a bit of a bite so if your family does not - reduce the amount of red peppers. It wasn't a lot of heat but you can taste the heat. I did have one minor issue which was not knowing if the ounces listed meant measurement by liquid measure or weight. So I just went with what seemed to be reasonable though I think 3 Tbsp rather than 3 oz. would be enough oil. **Liquid measure - oil, wine, cream **By cup (liquid?) - green onions, chopped garlic **By weight - chicken, artichokes, butter, romano cheese (FIY - the oil, garlic and cheese all came out the same amount whether measured by size or weight.

I had high expectations for this recipe. It went down because it was dinner, but something about it had an odd taste, maybe its just not for us. Sorry.
