Beer Brat Pasta

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F

Mix red pepper, onion, and garlic with olive oil in a 9 x 13- inch baking dish and roast in oven for 25 minutes; stirring occasionally.

While vegetables roast, remove casing from bratwurst, crumble and brown in a skillet over medium heat until meat is no longer pink. Remove bratwurst and drain on a paper towel; pour fat from skillet.

Add bratwurst and beer to skillet and simmer.

Remove roasted vegetables from oven and immediately add bratwurst and beer. Add basil, pasta, 1 cup of cheese and toss to mix thoroughly. If mixture seems too dry, add some of the reserved pasta water to moisten.

Sprinkle remaining cheese over top and serve.
