SPICY SPAGHETTI WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND HERBS



Spicy Spaghetti With Caramelized Onions and Herbs image

Except perhaps for the fresh herbs, you probably have all the necessary ingredients to make this incredibly flavorful, easy pasta. The caramelized onions add sweetness to the salty olives and Parmesan, while red chile and garlic make the dish's flavors pungent and deep. A squeeze of fresh lemon right at the end brightens everything, adding a mild tang. Feel free to play around with the basic formula, swapping capers or even a small tin of sardines or tuna for olives, vinegar for the lemon, arugula or spinach for the parsley, and other cheeses (feta or pecorino) for the Parmesan.

Time 45m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Kosher salt, as needed
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 large white or Spanish onions, halved and very thinly sliced
12 ounces spaghetti
6 garlic cloves
1/2 teaspoon chile paste or red-pepper flakes, or to taste
2 anchovies, chopped (optional)
1 cup chopped mix of parsley and basil (or use all parsley)
1/3 cup chopped cured Moroccan or other intensely flavored black olives
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed
Lemon wedges, for squeezing
Grated Parmesan, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Put a large pot of heavily salted water on and let it come to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, cook the onions: Heat 1/4 cup oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and pale golden at the edges, 20 to 25 minutes. Lower heat if the edges start to brown too quickly or raise heat if onions aren't turning golden quickly enough.
  • When the water comes to a boil, cook spaghetti according to package directions until just al dente. Reserve 1 cup pasta water; drain pasta.
  • Thinly slice 4 garlic cloves, and stir into golden onions, along with red-pepper flakes. Continue to cook until onions are a rich brown, about 10 minutes longer. If the garlic starts to burn, lower the heat.
  • Finely grate remaining garlic cloves, and mash into anchovies using the flat side of your knife. Move some of the onion mixture to the side of the pan and add anchovy paste to bare spot in the skillet. Cook paste for 1 minute, then add herbs and olives, stir everything together, and cook another 1 minute.
  • Stir in cooked pasta, butter, and salt to taste, tossing to coat pasta. Add pasta water if it looks dry. Serve with a generous squeeze of lemon, and sprinkle with Parmesan and more chile on top, if desired.

Caramelized Onion Pasta image

All you need for this tasty dinner is a bag of onions, garlic, some dried pasta, and cheese. Caramelizing sliced onions in a little butter and olive oil makes them become sweet and yielding, almost luscious. Pasta water and Parmesan do double duty, adding salt and depth while the creamy sauce forms.

SPAGHETTI WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS, ANCHOVIES, AND TOASTED-GARLIC BREADCRUMBS



Spaghetti with Caramelized Onions, Anchovies, and Toasted-Garlic Breadcrumbs image

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 loaf day-old white bread, crusts removed, cut into 1-inch cubes
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more as needed
9 garlic cloves, 3 lightly crushed, 6 thinly sliced
Coarse salt
3 large onions, thinly sliced
3 to 5 oil-packed anchovy fillets, chopped
1/4 teaspoon crushed red-pepper flakes
1 pound dried spaghetti
1 cup coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, plus more for garnish
1/2 ounce (1 tablespoon) unsalted butter
Freshly ground pepper
Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, for garnish

Steps:

  • Pulse bread in a food processor until coarse crumbs form. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add crushed garlic, and cook until golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Add breadcrumbs and 1 tablespoon oil, and stir until well coated. Season with salt, and cook until breadcrumbs are crisp and golden brown. Place on a rimmed baking sheet lined with paper towels to drain. Discard garlic, and let breadcrumbs cool completely.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons oil in each of 2 large skillets over medium heat. Divide onions between skillets, and cook, stirring frequently, until caramelized and golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. (Add a little more oil if necessary.) Combine cooked onions in 1 skillet. Add sliced garlic, and cook over medium heat until golden, about 3 minutes. Add anchovies and red-pepper flakes, and cook for 2 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook spaghetti according to package directions in salted water. Drain, reserving 1 cup cooking liquid. Transfer spaghetti to skillet, and toss well. Add reserved cooking liquid, parsley, and butter, and season with salt and pepper. Mix well, then top with breadcrumbs, and garnish with parsley.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality yogurt. Greek yogurt or whole milk yogurt will give the sauce a richer flavor and creamier texture.
  • Don't overcook the onions. Caramelized onions should be soft and golden brown, but not mushy. If you overcook them, they will lose their sweetness and flavor.
  • Season the sauce to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of honey for a little extra flavor.
  • Serve the spaghetti immediately. This dish is best enjoyed fresh and hot. The yogurt sauce will thicken as it cools, so it's important to serve it right away.

Conclusion:

Spaghetti with caramelized onions and yogurt is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. The combination of sweet, caramelized onions and tangy yogurt sauce is simply irresistible. And the best part is, it's a healthy and affordable meal that the whole family will love.
