Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons olive oil
3 medium cloves garlic (peeled and sliced thin)
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 (15-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt + more to taste
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper + more to taste
1/2 cup halved and pitted kalamata olives
2 tablespoons capers (drained)
1 tablespoon soy sauce or tamari
Pinch crushed red pepper flakes (more or less, to taste)
8 ounces of your favorite pasta such as spaghetti (penne, farfalle (bow tie), or rotini)
A small handful of minced fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Before you start the sauce, set a large pot of water on the stove and bring to a boil so you can cook your pasta (according to package directions) at the same time you're working on your sauce.
  • Set a large sauté pan over low heat. When hot, add the olive oil. When the olive oil is hot, add the garlic and oregano. Cook, stirring frequently, until the garlic is just starting to turn golden (but not brown, this will make it bitter) - 2-3 minutes.
  • Add the tomatoes, salt and pepper. Increase heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes have cooked down and the liquid has mostly dissipated, about 10 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to low and add olives, capers, soy sauce or tamari, and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring, for another minute until the olives are heated through. Taste and add more salt, pepper, or red pepper flakes if desired.
  • Drain pasta and add pasta to the pan along with the sauce. Toss well until evenly distributed.
  • Scoop into bowls or onto plates, sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired, and serve.
