Spring Puttanesca Pasta
Description :
This lively pasta adds a seasonal twist on classic puttanesca, featuring fresh chiles, spring onions, green olives, and arugula.
Ingredient :
-
1 pound uncooked linguine
-
2 medium spring onions
-
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
-
6 large garlic cloves, thinly sliced
-
1 (2-ounce) can flat anchovy fillets in oil, drained
-
1/4 cup capers, drained
-
1 tablespoon finely chopped jarred Calabrian chiles (such as Divina)
-
1/2 cup dry white wine
-
1 cup Castelvetrano olives, pitted and coarsely crushed
-
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
-
3 cups loosely packed baby arugula
-
1/2 cup loosely packed fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped
Direction :
-
Bring a large saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil over high. Add linguine; cook, stirring occasionally, until 2 minutes short of al dente. (Pasta will finish cooking in sauce.) Drain pasta, reserving 1 cup cooking liquid.
-
While pasta cooks, thinly slice spring onions, separating bulbs from greens. Heat olive oil in a large, high-sided skillet over medium. Add spring onion bulbs, garlic, anchovies, capers, and chiles. Cook, stirring often, until spring onion bulbs are softened and anchovies are dissolved, about 5 minutes. Add wine, and cook, stirring often, until almost evaporated, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in olives and spring onion greens; cook, stirring often, until heated through, about 2 minutes. Season with black pepper.
-
Add cooked pasta and reserved cooking liquid to skillet. Bring to a simmer over medium-high; cook, tossing vigorously, until pasta is al dente and coated in a light sauce, about 3 minutes. Fold in arugula and parsley. Divide evenly among 4 bowls, and serve immediately.
