Cook over low heat until the tomatoes are very tender, about 15 minutes. | 3. Discard the thyme and bay leaf. | 4. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the tomatoes to a work surface and coarsely chop them; reserve the olive oil for another use. | 5. In a large saucepan, melt the butter. | 6. Add the onion and a pinch of salt & a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes (if using) and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until softened, 5 minutes. | 7. Add the pasta and cook, stirring, until golden in spots, about 2 minutes. | 8. Add the remaining garlic; cook for 1 minute. | 9. Add 1/2 cup of the chicken stock to the pasta and cook over moderately high heat, stirring constantly, until nearly absorbed. | 10. Continue adding the chicken stock, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring and cooking until it is nearly absorbed between additions. | 11. The pasta is done when it is al dente and suspended in a lightly thickened sauce, about 17 minutes total. | 12. Stir the tomatoes into the pasta. | 13. Off the heat, add the goat cheese and Parmigiano-Reggiano & another pinch of red pepper flakes (if using) and stir until melted. | 14.
