This recipe comes from my friend Tommy. The origin of this combination of fish and pasta comes from the southern part of Italy; most would say it’s a Sicilian style. Enjoy
Penne Pasta with Arugula and Sardines
2 tbsp olive oil
2 four-ounce canned sardines, (smoked, packed in olive oil, packed in salt, etc... your choice)
2 crushed garlic cloves
1 tbsp crushed red pepper
3 cups arugula
1 lb dried penne pasta
Heat olive oil in a pan, add sardines, garlic and crushed red pepper. Cook for about 10 minutes over medium high heat, breaking sardines down.
Cook pasta according to package directions, saving 3/4 cup of the pasta water.
Stir pasta water into sardine mixture to thicken the sauce. Add arugula and wilt.
Toss penne into the mixture and add salt and pepper to taste.
