Gigi Hadid went viral on Instagram when she shared her recipe for easy spicy vodka pasta. It became known as Gigi Hadid Pasta and I have the easy-to-follow recipe for you here!
- Pasta shape of choice (I like orecchiette or small shells) – Olive oil – Red onion or shallot – Minced garlic – Tomato paste – Vodka (optional) – Heavy cream – Red pepper flakes – Salt – Pepper – Unsalted butter – Parmesan cheese – Fresh basil
Bring large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook pasta according to instructions. When draining, reserve ½ cup of water.
Add olive oil to large skillet over medium heat. Add shallot or onion & cook until it begins to soften, about 5 mins.
Add tomato paste & stir. Let cook for 3-4 mins until it's starting to brown/caramelize a bit.
Stir vodka into sauce & let cook for about 1 min. You can leave the vodka out if you prefer.
Add cooked pasta, reserved pasta water, & butter to skillet & toss to coat pasta in sauce.
Enjoy Gigi Hadid Pasta for an easy weeknight dinner or a weekend meal with friends!
