You may think that there's no need for elevation or innovation for the classic workaday pasta, but au contraire… one bite of these fried goat cheese pucks and you'll be rethinking all your assumptions. Crispy panko on the outside hides a creamy perfection that melds perfectly with the chunky tomato-and-pepper pasta sauce. Elevate or innovate, this meal delightfully resonates.
