Rigatoni with seitan puttanesca sauce

This was my last new recipe for 2009, and it was fairly improvised. I had recently looked up puttanesca in wikipedia, discovering that it is a “pantry dish”, meaning that most of the ingredients are staples in an Italian pantry, and mine too. I did alter it a bit. Normally it has anchovies, which I omitted, and normally it does not have onions which I added. And I also added in some seitan for protein. The result was quite tasty.

Here is what I used:

3 cloves garlic
2 pasilla (poblano) peppers
1 large onion
1 can mock pork (seitan)
20 green olives, chopped
2 cans petite diced tomatoes
1 can tomato paste
2 tsp capers
1 cup white wine
Italian seasonings
