The rich sauce for this flavorful treat comes together even before you finish cooking the pasta. I make this dish when I need to have dinner on the table in a hurry, and, if I planned my week right, I already have cooked pasta in the refrigerator, so I can have a meal ready in less than 15 minutes.
