One-Pot Pasta Puttanesca

Step 1

Halve 12 ounces cherry tomatoes and 1/2 cup pitted Castelvetrano olives, and place both in a large, straight-sided skillet. Coarsely chop 1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves and add to the skillet. Add 4 1/2 cups water, 12 ounces linguine, 1/4 cup capers, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.

Step 2

Bring to a boil over high heat (this will take about 5 minutes). Boil the mixture, stirring and turning the pasta with tongs to prevent sticking, until the pasta is al dente and almost all the liquid has evaporated, 8 to 10 minutes.

Step 3

Remove from the heat. Top with more fresh parsley. Taste and season with more salt as needed.
