Ingredients
- 1 pound penne pasta
- 28 ounces Italian San Marzano tomatoes diced
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
- ½ cup brine cured Castelvetrano green olives pitted and halved lengtwise
- 12 artichokes hearts marinated in olive oil drained and cut into bite size
- ½ cup capers in vinegar well drained and patted dry
- ½ cup parmigiano reggiano grated
Instructions
- In a pasta pot, bring salted water to a roaring boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until al dente or firm to the bite.
- In a saucepan that is large enough to hold the cooked pasta, combine the tomato sauce, parsley, olives, capers, and artichokes. Simmer while the pasta is cooking.
- When the pasta is cooked at dente, drain well and add to the tomato sauce. Mix the pasta and sauce to cover the pasta well.
- Cover and let it rest for 2 minutes to allow the pasta to absorb the sauce.
- Transfer to pasta bowls and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.

Notes
- Rinse the capers well and dry them well, by doing so you remove a lot of the vinegar taste as well as some of the saltiness.
- Taste and adjust the season, mainly salt if you need to.
- It is imperative that you cook the pasta al dente. Once you add it to the tomato sauce, it will continue to cook and become overcooked.
