Categories     pastas, side dish

Time 20m

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

Salt
1 pound penne rigate
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup (about 10 ounces) frozen spinach, drained and finely chopped
6 or 7 anchovy fillets, rinsed and patted dry

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta, stir and cook until tender but still firm to the tooth, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook until it just starts to brown. Add the spinach and anchovies, lower the heat to medium, and mash the anchovies with a fork until they disappear into the spinach. Remove from the heat.
  • Set aside about 1 cup pasta water and drain the pasta. Return the spinach to high heat and add the pasta. Toss to combine. Add a few tablespoons pasta water to loosen. Taste, and season with salt and pepper.

I'm not a huge fan of anchovies, but I loved this dish. The anchovies were not overpowering at all and they added a nice savory flavor.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover spinach. I also added some chopped sun-dried tomatoes and it was delicious.

I was hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of anchovies, but I was pleasantly surprised. The anchovies were not fishy at all and they added a nice salty flavor to the dish.

A new favorite in our house! The anchovies add a lovely depth of flavor and the spinach is a great way to get some greens in.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. The anchovies melted into the sauce and added a subtle, savory flavor. The spinach was tender and wilted, and the lemon zest brightened up the whole dish.
