Greek Pasta Recipe


Greek Pasta Recipe
I created this dish with the help of my Greek Great-grandmother who lives just north of Athens. I like this with a nice seasoned lamb chop or boneless pork chop but my fiance and mother love it as a stand alone main dish.

Ingredients
  • 3/4 pound of spaghetti, fettuccine, or linguinie-uncooked (I use linguinie)
  • 1 tsp dried oregano (a dash more doesn't hurt)
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 Medium Yellow Onion, chopped
  • 1/3 cup grated Romano or Parmesan cheese (a combination is tasty as well)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 oz Feta, crumbled
  • 2-6 oz jars marinated artichoke hearts, chopped
  • 12 Greek Kalamata olives (I use the ones in vinegar brine and olive oil from Krinkos, gotta pit them though!)
  • *Adding a small jar of sun ripened tomatoes drained and chopped makes a nice treat mixed in when adding the artichoke hearts!

Directions
  1. Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  2. Heat oil in a large skillet. Add onion and garlic, saute 1 to 2 minutes.
  3. Drain artichokes, reserving liquid, chop artichoke hearts and set aside. Add reserved artichoke liquid, olives, oregano and lemon juice to onion/garlic mixture and mix well.
  4. Heat 2 to 3 minutes.
  5. Add reserved artichoke hearts, heat through.
  6. Combine cooked pasta and artichoke mixture.
  7. Sprinkle cheeses on top as serving.
