Chunky Puttanesca Crostini
- 1 loaf crusty bread, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup EVOO (extra-virgin olive oil)
- 6 to 8 large Italian anchovy fillets
- 4 garlic cloves, chopped
- 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 2 pints grape tomatoes
- 4 tablespoons capers, drained
- 1/4 cup chopped pitted oil-cured olives
- 1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped
- Preheat the oven to 325F.
- Arrange the bread on rimmed baking sheets in a single layer and toast until evenly golden, about 12 minutes.
- Heat the EVOO in a skillet with a tight-fitting lid over medium to medium-high heat.
- Melt the anchovies into the oil.
- When they break up and melt away, stir in the garlic, red pepper flakes, tomatoes, capers, and olives and cover the pan.
- Cook for 7 to 8 minutes more to burst the tomatoes, then uncover and mash any stray tomatoes with a potato masher or wooden spoon, and fold in the parsley.
- Spoon the chunky sauce onto the crostini and serve immediately.
