Ingredients:
Sauce:
2 Large Red Bell Peppers
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
1/4 Cup Chopped Shallots
2 Garlic Cloves, Minced
1 Serrano Chili or Jalapeño Chili, Seeded, Minced
1 Cup Low-Salt Chicken Broth
Pasta:
4oz Spaghetti
2 Medium Yellow Squash, Shredded
1/2 Sweet Onion, Chopped
1 Tablespoon of Olive Oil
Directions:
Sauce:
Char bell peppers and the jalapeño over gas flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides. If charring in the broiler cut the peppers in half and seed them. Please note that the jalapeño will char faster than the bell peppers in the broiler. Enclose the peppers in paper bag for 10 minutes. Peel and seed after the bag if you used an open flame. Coarsely chop the peppers.
It took me 4 minutes to char the jalapeño and 8 minutes to char the bell peppers BUT you will want to keep a close eye on your peppers as your results WILL vary.
Heat oil in medium skillet over medium heat. Add shallots, and garlic; sauté until shallots are tender, about 5 minutes. Cool slightly. Transfer mixture to blender; add bell peppers, jalapeños and chicken broth. Puree until smooth. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. The sauce will be loose but I theorize that you could simmer it in a pan to thicken it up or add corn starch.
Pasta:
Boil pasta according to directions on package.
Saute the onions until tender, about 5 minutes.
Saute the squash until tender, about 2 minutes.
Toss the onions and squash with the pasta and add sauce.

You won't miss the tomatoes!
Not at all. Just to put it out there though this does not taste like a spaghetti sauce. It has its own taste and sweetness to it. Just so you know.
