Spaghetti in spicy sauce with fish and olives topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 280g whole grain spaghetti (about a third of the package)
- 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil + extra for spaghetti
- 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- A pinch of red pepper flakes
- 1 can (800g) canned whole plum tomatoes, unsalted, crushed by hand
- 0.5 tsp dried oregano
- 1 large tilapia fillet (220g), cut into 2cm pieces.
- 10 kalamata olives, quartered
- 0.5 cups loosely packed fresh parsley (about half a bunch)
Preparation:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to package directions; drain, reserving 1 cup of the cooking water. Toss the spaghetti with a little olive oil and set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil, garlic, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and red pepper flakes. Once the oil shimmers, add the tomatoes, reserved pasta water, and oregano; bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce has thickened but is still pourable, 12 to 15 minutes.
- Add the fish and olives and cook, stirring occasionally, until the fish is cooked through, 3-4 minutes. Add the spaghetti and parsley. Toss to distribute evenly and divide among four plates.
