Sbarro Baked Ziti Recipe 415

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Cook Ziti according to package directions until al dente, stirring often. Drain well, but DO NOT RINSE. Combine ricotta, Romano, 2 3/4 cups tomato sauce and pepper in large mixing bowl. Gently combine cooked ziti with cheese/sauce mixture. In a 13 by 9 by 2 inch pan, spread the ¼ cup reserved sauce. Add ziti. Top with mozzarella cheese. Cover loosely with aluminum foil and bake until mozzarella is thoroughly melted, about 12-15 minutes. Serve with garlic bread and additional sauce if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Brush a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with oil.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Salt generously, add the pasta and cook according to the package directions until al dente. Drain and add the pasta back to the pot.
• Put the milk in a glass measuring cup and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between each, until just warm, about 2 minutes.
• Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the flour and whisk until combined. Continue to whisk until the mixture bubbles a bit but does not brown, about 1 minute.
• Gradually pour in the warm milk while whisking constantly. Bring to a boil over high heat, whisking often and occasionally running a rubber spatula around the edges of the saucepan to prevent burning. When the sauce is boiling, reduce to a simmer over medium heat and cook until thickened to a nice coating consistency, 5 to 6 minutes.
• Remove from the heat. Add 1 cup of the Parmesan, the red pepper flakes and 2 teaspoons salt. Whisk until smooth.
• Pour the bechamel sauce over the pasta and toss to combine. Fold in the cubed mozzarella. Transfer the pasta to the prepared baking dish. Cover the top of the pasta with the sliced mozzarella and sprinkle with the remaining 1/3 cup Parmesan. Bake until lightly browned and hot, about 30 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• stirring often. After cooking, drain ziti well, but DO NOT RINSE OFF UNDER WATER! While ziti is cooking preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine ricotta, Romano, tomato sauce (reserve 1/4 cup) and pepper in large mixing bowl. Gently combine cooked ziti with cheese/sauce mixture. In a 13"x9"x2" pan, spread the 1/4 cup reserved sauce. Add ziti and top with mozzarella cheese. Cover loosely with aluminum foil and bake until mozzarella is thoroughly melted (about 12-15 minutes). Serve with garlic bread and additional sauce if desired.
