The (Not Barefoot) Contessa'S Fish Pasta
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic
- 12 or so oil cured olives, depitted and chopped
- 1 pound white fish, like striped bass or snapper
- 1 tablespoon salted capers
- half a glass of white wine
- 4 big and fresh tomatoes, roughly chopped
- 1 packet linguine or spaghetti
- 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped roughly
- salt and pepper
- chop tomatoes roughly
- dice garlic
- deskin fish and cut into bite sized chunks
- saute three tablespoons of oil with garlic for two minutes or so over medium heat
- add fish, stirring carefully until browned. try not to break it up.
- once browned, add salt and pepper, then half glass of white wine and turn up heat. stir carefully till wine is nearly evaporated.
- meantime, heat pot of hot water for pasta, generously salted.
- when wine is nearly evaporated, reduce heat, add tomatoes and cook for 10 minutes or so
- add capers (i prefer just to shake the salt off them rather than wash them), parsley and olives. again stir carefully: you don't want to turn this into fish puree. when the tomato juice is released and the sauce is just thickening, turn off heat. you want the tomatoes a little raw.
- cook pasta al dente.
- carefully add the sauce to the pasta over a little heat. stir gently for a minute or two and serve.
