Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pints grape tomatoes
4 garlic cloves, unpeeled
3 shallots, cut into eighths
2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and ground pepper
8 ounces rigatoni pasta
1/3 cup pitted olives, such as Nicoise, coarsely chopped
3 cups baby arugula or spinach

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place tomatoes, garlic, shallots, and thyme on a rimmed baking sheet. Toss with oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast until tomatoes burst, shallots are browned, and garlic is soft, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta until al dente. Reserve 1/4 cup pasta water; drain pasta and return to pot.
  • Peel roasted garlic and mash with the flat side of a chef's knife. Add to pasta pot, along with vegetables, olives, and pasta water. Cook over medium-high until sauce thickens, about 3 minutes. Let cool slightly, then toss with arugula.
