Report
Pasta puttanesca is a quick and easy dinner recipe bursting with the deliciously salty flavors of olives, capers, and anchovies cooked in a simple tomato sauce.
Share:
Ingredients
- 12 ounces dried spaghetti
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic chopped
- 6 fillets anchovy chopped
- ½ cup pitted black olives chopped
- 3 tablespoons capers
- 14 ounce can diced tomatoes drained
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- ¼ cup chopped Italian parsley
- Optional: grated parmesan cheese for serving
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the spaghetti and cook according to the package directions. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the pasta water.
- While the water is heating, make the sauce. Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and anchovies and cook until both are soft, about 3 minutes. Add the olives, capers, diced tomatoes, and red pepper flakes and bring to a simmer. Lower the heat and simmer gently until the pasta is cooked.
- Add the cooked pasta and parsley to the pan and toss with the sauce. Add the pasta water, a few tablespoons at a time, to loosen the sauce, if needed.
- If using, serve with some parmesan cheese over the top.
