Sardine Pasta with Lemon, Capers and Chili Flakes

• 分量: 4 servings
• 調理時間: 10 minutes
• 総時間: 20 minutes

材料

8 ounces angel hair (capellini) or spaghetti pasta

6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1/4 cup shallots (minced)

2 teaspoons lemon zest

1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (spicy - use more or less to taste)

1/2 teaspoon salt (or more to taste)

1 package Season Brand Sardines in Pure Olive Oil, drained (4.375 oz)

3 tablespoons capers (rinsed)

5 tablespoons lemon juice (or more to taste)

3 tablespoons fresh parsley or basil (chopped)

手順

Set a large pot of water over high heat to boil (this will be your pasta cooking water). Meanwhile, in a large sauteuse, sauté pan, or skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Once the olive oil is hot, add the shallots, lemon zest, crushed red pepper and salt. Cook until the shallots are soft and translucent (careful, don't let them burn!).Add the sardines and capers to the pan. Saute for about 2 minutes until warmed through, breaking up the sardines into smaller pieces as you sauté.

When the sardines begin to turn golden, slowly stir in the fresh lemon juice. Turn heat to lowest setting to keep warm while you cook your pasta.When pasta water boils, cook pasta according to package directions. Drain, reserving a cup of the pasta cooking water.

Add the cooked pasta and fresh chopped parsley or basil to the pan with the sauce (alternatively, you can put the pasta back in the large pasta pot and pour the sauce over it). Toss pasta to evenly coat with sauce, mixing well with the other ingredients. If the pasta seems too dry, add a little of the reserved pasta cooking water, 1 tbsp at a time, to loosen it a bit. It should not be thick or heavy, and the noodles should be lightly coated with oil.Add additional salt, lemon or chili pepper flakes to taste, if desired. Serve hot.

メモ

Tip: use the oil from the sardine can into the pan. I think 4-5 tbsp of oil (not 6) would work.

This was tasty. The sardines were not overly strong tasting. I didn’t add shallots so went heavy on the lemon zest & pepper flakes. I added spinach & tomatoes & lots of basil. Super easy but it definitely took me longer than 20 min
