Ingredients

Servings:2
  • 2 pints Cherry tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup Extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 pound Spaghetti or Linguine
  • 4 cloves Garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 6 fillets Anchovy fillets, minced
  • 3 tablespoons Capers, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and halved
  • 1/2 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 cup Fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 to taste Salt and black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and toss the cherry tomatoes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and a pinch of salt on a large rimmed baking sheet.

  2. 2

    Roast the tomatoes for 20-25 minutes until they are blistered, slightly charred, and have released their juices.

  3. 3

    While the tomatoes roast, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta according to package directions until just al dente.

  4. 4

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add the remaining olive oil, sliced garlic, and anchovies; cook for 3 minutes until the anchovies melt into the oil.

  5. 5

    Stir in the capers, olives, and red pepper flakes, cooking for another 2 minutes to release the aromatics.

  6. 6

    Carefully transfer the roasted tomatoes and all their accumulated juices from the baking sheet into the skillet, stirring to combine with the olive mixture.

  7. 7

    Add the cooked pasta directly to the skillet along with a splash of starchy pasta water, tossing vigorously over medium-high heat until the sauce coats the noodles.

  8. 8

    Remove from heat, stir in the fresh parsley, and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper before serving immediately.
