I soaked my chopped sun dried tomatoes in olive oil (enough to just oil them up) for a 1/2 hour before cooking time.



In 1 large pot of boiling, salted water cook linguine for 8 to 10 minutes or until tender but firm drain well.


Meanwhile, in large skillet, heat half of the oil over medium heat cook garlic, hot pepper flakes, onion, & both peppers for 4 minutes.

Spoon enough over pasta.
