FOSTER'S SOUTHWEST PASTA

Steps:

• In a food processor, combine peppers, chicken base, olive oil, tomato paste, garlic, blackening seasoning, sugar, salt and 1/4 cup Parmesan, and process until smooth. Transfer to a large mixing bowl. Slowly add cream, whisking until thoroughly incorporated. Add cornstarch mixture, and whisk to combine. (Sauce may be made in advance and stored, refrigerated, up to 48 hours.).
• Boil pasta according to package directions, checking a couple minutes before the recommended cooking time for doneness. While pasta is cooking, heat butter in a saute pan over medium-high heat until it foams, then add chicken, scallions and snow peas. Saute 1 to 2 minutes, just until items are warmed through. Add sauce and cook, stirring, until sauce thickens. Toss with cooked, drained pasta. Garnish with diced tomato, parsley and Parmesan.
