Rigatoni alla Puttanesca e Arrabbiata

By: Kelly Supporting Member (Click to learn more about Supporting Membership)
"A combination of Puttanesca and Arrabbiata sauces, plus a few added ingredients, this dish makes a great main course. It's also fun to experiment with this recipe. I used rigatoni, but any pasta would work well."

Original Recipe Yield 2 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 3 slices bacon
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
  • 1 pinch red pepper flakes, or to taste
  • 3 tomatoes - peeled, seeded and chopped
  • 5 artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
  • 1/4 cup chopped kalamata olives
  • 1 tablespoon capers, rinsed and drained
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups uncooked rigatoni pasta
  • 2 ounces crumbled feta cheese, for topping
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, for garnish

Directions

  1. Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium-high heat until evenly brown. Drain on paper towels, and crumble into large pieces.
  2. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the rigatoni pasta and cook until al dente, about 13 minutes. Drain, and place pasta into a large bowl.
  3. Place olive oil in another skillet, and heat over medium-high heat. Stir in the garlic, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Mix in the bacon, red pepper flakes, tomatoes, artichokes, olives, and capers. Cook and stir until heated through, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  4. Add bacon-vegetable mixture to pasta, and toss until evenly mixed. Divide between two serving plates. Sprinkle with feta cheese, and garnish with parsley. Serve immediately.
