Pasta Puttanesca

Step 1

Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add pasta and cook according to the directions on the package.

Step 2

While the pasta is cooking, heat the oil in a large skillet over a medium flame. Add the garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the parsley, olives, capers, anchovy paste, oregano and crushed red pepper to the skillet, and saute for 2 minutes more. Add the tomatoes and simmer for about 5 minutes. Stir in the arugula and simmer for 1 minute more, until the greens wilt slightly.

Step 3

When the pasta is done, drain it and add it to the skillet, tossing it with the sauce to combine. Top with grated cheese.
