Ingredients
- 350 g pasta - 12 oz of spaghetti or the type of pasta you prefer
- 500 g monkfish 1.1 pound (fillet)
- 500 g tomatoes 1.1 pound of cherry tomatoes or grape tomatoes
- 2 cloves garlic peeled and left whole
- parsley fresh and finely chopped
- 6 tablespoons olive oil extra virgin
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Start preparing Pasta with Monkfish and Cherry Tomatoes by cutting the monkfish into fairly thick slices. Remove the central bone with a knife, being careful to remove any skin residues too. Then cut the monkfish fillets into pieces of about 2 cm (1 inch) and keep aside.
- In a large frying pan sauté the 2 cloves of garlic, peeled and left whole, in 6 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil. If you leave the garlic whole, then you can remove it before serving. If, on the other hand, you like the strong flavor of garlic, you can finely chop it to flavor the sauce.
- Add the cherry tomatoes - washed and cut in half - and some fresh parsley leaves finely chopped. Stir then add a pinch of fine salt to taste, cover with the lid and cook over low heat for about 10 minutes.
- Remove the garlic and add the monkfish previously cut into pieces. Keep cooking for another 5 minutes so as to cook the fish as well.
- Meanwhile, boil plenty of water (about 2 liters) in a pot, for the pasta. When it boils, add a tablespoon of coarse salt. Add the pasta (we opted for spaghetti) and cook following the cooking times indicated on the package. Usually it goes from 8 to 12 minutes.
- Drain the pasta al dente with the help of a pasta spoon. Place it directly into the the frying pan with the tomato and fish sauce. Stir to mix well and flavor the pasta. Your Pasta with Monkfish and Cherry Tomatoes is ready. Serve hot.
