How to Make Pasta With Sardine Sauce Pasta Con Sardine Siciliano

  1. In a large pan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped garlic and cook until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
  2. Add the sardines (drained) and cook until they begin to flake, about 3-5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the cherry tomatoes, red pepper flakes, and half of the chopped parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook until the tomatoes soften, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Add the white wine and let it reduce slightly (about 2 minutes).
  5. In a separate pot, cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta cooking water before draining.
  6. Add the cooked pasta to the sardine sauce, along with the reserved pasta water. Toss to combine. Add a little more pasta water if needed to create a light sauce.
  7. Stir in the remaining chopped parsley and the lemon zest.
  8. Serve immediately, garnished with extra parsley and a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.
