- Bring a pot of salted water to boil, cook the rigatoni til el dente.
- Deglaze the pot with the wine, stir to combine and turn the heat to medium-low to cook off the wine while the pasta cooks.

- Preheat your broiler after you add the rigatoni to the water.
- Drain the pasta and add it to the sauce, stirring to combine.
