Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Salt
1 pound spaghetti
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved and seeded
Freshly ground black pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil for drizzling, plus 3 tablespoons
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
4 anchovy fillets
3 tablespoons chopped capers
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
3 to 4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 cup packed, pitted black olives, finely chopped, with some brine (recommended: Kalamata)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Bring a large pot of water over medium heat to a boil. Salt the water, add the spaghetti and cook to al dente. Remove and reserve a cup or so of the cooking liquid before draining.
  • Add the tomatoes to a small bowl and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and sprinkle with oregano. Scatter the tomatoes on a baking rack over a baking sheet and roast about 20 minutes.
  • Heat about 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the anchovies, working them into oil with a wooden spoon. Stir in the capers, red pepper flakes, garlic, olives, and a splash of olive brine, and saute 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir in the pasta cooking liquid, about 1 cup, and toss in the pasta.
  • Put the tapenade pasta into serving bowls and top with oven roasted cherry tomatoes. Serve as a first course or alongside a seafood entree.

This dish was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I will use less salt next time.

I'm not a big fan of tapenade, but I decided to give this recipe a try anyway. I'm glad I did because it was surprisingly good! The tapenade sauce was not overpowering and the roasted tomatoes added a nice sweetness. I will definitely be making this

This dish was easy to make and very tasty. I used sun-dried tomatoes instead of roasted tomatoes and it was still delicious. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

I was disappointed with this dish. The tapenade sauce was bland and the roasted tomatoes were too sour. I will not be making this again.
