ingredients
- 1 pound penne pasta
- 28 ounces San Marzano tomatoes
- 1 tablespoons parsley
- 1/2 cup green olives
- 12 artichokes hearts
- 1/2 cup capers
- 1/2 cup parmigiani reggiano
Method
Step 1
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.
Step 2
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.
Step 3
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.
Step 4
Cover and let it rest for 2 minutes to allow the pasta to absorb the sauce.
Step 5
Transfer to pasta bowls and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
