Chorizo pasta packs the complex flavor of an all-day pasta sauce but cooks in just 20 minutes with the help of a few pantry staples: Jarred roasted peppers bring bursts of sweetness, double concentrated tomato paste adds that slow-simmered feeling in half the time, and a touch of sherry vinegar lends balance.
