Directions
-
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente, then drain, reserving about 1/2 cup of pasta water.
-
While pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and fennel seeds, sauting for 1 minute until fragrant.
-
Stir in the can of fire-roasted tomatoes (undrained), balsamic vinegar, red wine vinegar, tamari, dried rosemary, dried oregano, sweet paprika, garlic powder, salt, and freshly ground black pepper.
-
Simmer the sauce for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
-
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet. Toss gently to coat evenly with the sauce, adding reserved pasta water a tablespoon at a time if needed to reach desired consistency.
-
Serve immediately.
