SPICY SPAGHETTI WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND HERBS



Spicy Spaghetti With Caramelized Onions and Herbs image

Except perhaps for the fresh herbs, you probably have all the necessary ingredients to make this incredibly flavorful, easy pasta. The caramelized onions add sweetness to the salty olives and Parmesan, while red chile and garlic make the dish's flavors pungent and deep. A squeeze of fresh lemon right at the end brightens everything, adding a mild tang. Feel free to play around with the basic formula, swapping capers or even a small tin of sardines or tuna for olives, vinegar for the lemon, arugula or spinach for the parsley, and other cheeses (feta or pecorino) for the Parmesan.

Time 45m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Kosher salt, as needed
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 large white or Spanish onions, halved and very thinly sliced
12 ounces spaghetti
6 garlic cloves
1/2 teaspoon chile paste or red-pepper flakes, or to taste
2 anchovies, chopped (optional)
1 cup chopped mix of parsley and basil (or use all parsley)
1/3 cup chopped cured Moroccan or other intensely flavored black olives
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed
Lemon wedges, for squeezing
Grated Parmesan, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Put a large pot of heavily salted water on and let it come to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, cook the onions: Heat 1/4 cup oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and pale golden at the edges, 20 to 25 minutes. Lower heat if the edges start to brown too quickly or raise heat if onions aren't turning golden quickly enough.
  • When the water comes to a boil, cook spaghetti according to package directions until just al dente. Reserve 1 cup pasta water; drain pasta.
  • Thinly slice 4 garlic cloves, and stir into golden onions, along with red-pepper flakes. Continue to cook until onions are a rich brown, about 10 minutes longer. If the garlic starts to burn, lower the heat.
  • Finely grate remaining garlic cloves, and mash into anchovies using the flat side of your knife. Move some of the onion mixture to the side of the pan and add anchovy paste to bare spot in the skillet. Cook paste for 1 minute, then add herbs and olives, stir everything together, and cook another 1 minute.
  • Stir in cooked pasta, butter, and salt to taste, tossing to coat pasta. Add pasta water if it looks dry. Serve with a generous squeeze of lemon, and sprinkle with Parmesan and more chile on top, if desired.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic, smashed
1 whole dried hot pepper, piri piri if available
1 sprig rosemary
1 medium white onion, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 large carrot, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 stalk celery, cut into 1/2-inch dice
2 15-ounce cans imported chickpeas
1 pound fresh or dried whole wheat spaghetti, or tonnarelli, if available
2 teaspoons unsalted butter, or as needed
Flaky salt (such as fleur de sel or Maldon)
coarsely ground black pepper
Extra virgin olive oil, for drizzling
1 tablespoon finely grated Parmigiano Reggiano, or as needed
2 tablespoons Japanese bonito flakes

Steps:

  • Place a large pot filled with lightly salted water over high heat to bring to a boil.
  • Place a large saucepan over medium-low heat and add olive oil, swirling it to coat the bottom. Reduce heat to low, add garlic, and cook it slowly until tender and golden, about 15 minutes. Add hot pepper, rosemary, onion, carrot, and celery and toss to coat well with oil. Raise heat to medium and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 15 minutes.
  • Discard rosemary and garlic. Add 1 can of chickpeas with the liquid from the can. Drain the second can, reserving the liquid. Add those chickpeas to the saucepan along with one can of water. Raise heat to medium-high and cook until liquid in pan is reduced by half. Discard hot pepper. Remove from heat and keep warm.
  • In the boiling water, cook the pasta until almost done, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain well and add to saucepan of chickpeas and vegetables. Cook the pasta in the sauce for 2 to 3 minutes, then add butter. If the mixture seems dry, add a bit of the reserved liquid from the chickpeas. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  • To serve, place the pasta in a deep, warmed, platter. Drizzle with a bit of extra virgin olive oil. Dust with Parmigiano Reggiano, and sprinkle with bonito flakes. Serve immediately.
