I found this on the internet a long time ago and have used it many times. A great side to serve at a bbq. Lots of garlic so not for the faint of heart. Photo courtesy of photobucket.com

Ingredients
  • 1 pound seashell pasta
  • 3 cups chopped tomatoes
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 15 kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 10 pepperoncini (chopped if desired)

Directions
  1. 1. Combine tomatoes, garlic, olives, basil, olive oil, and pepperoncinis. Stir together and allow to marinate as long as you have time for; overnight is best, although it's fine to eat right away too.
  2. 2. Cook pasta according to the package directions; drain. Toss with sauce and serve.

:>) I love this.... I will try this on my get together night with my bestfriend...we love food and always make it a part of our get togethers.


This is a good recipe.. real thing. Italian at it's best, simple and fresh. Good post.


I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. What I like best is that all the ingredients are fresh and ya gotta love all that garlic


This sounds awesome. Thanks.


This sounds great ! I love all the fresh ingredients & how easy it is to put together. I'll make it just for ME, cos my hubby thinks you have to have a HEAVY red or white sauce if you're gonna eat pasta. :oP


I love a recipe with simple ingredients, and I think Kalamata olives are divine! This sounds so refreshing! Thanks.


Yumm! Am making this tomorrow night - my kind of supper!


This is going together tonight for tomorrow night. Was wondering what to try. Thanks for making up my mind.

Tart, mild heat, garlicky, clean taste, smooth and all the flavors could be tasted by themselves and all worked in harmony with each other. Wow, this was great! Everyone here has a cold (except me) and all enjoyed this without a doubt. Cleaned a few noses a bit too. Used 6 large cloves of garlic (we are serious garlic freaks and just came back from the garlic festival in nearby Saugerties 2 weekends ago.) Will be taking this recipe with me next year. Outstanding is an understatement!
Thanks!
Bill


Sounds wonderful!! Can't wait to try it!


I love the translation of the recipe title .... but the original is "pasta alla puttanesca" meaning a little bit more than" mean woman"!
The recipe is just fine but the garlic is too much!


I love it!!


LOVE it...with all the garlic!!


Can't wait to try it, especially after reading Bill's comments.


Cant wait to try it i love the picture ha ha ha it made me laugh lol lol lol


I make mine this way too only I use red hot cherry peppers, to give the dish more color. You have my 5 fork rating
