Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by bringing a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 12 oz. of dry spaghetti and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Reserve about 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the spaghetti.
- Heat 6 tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1.5 tablespoon minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Incorporate 1.5 lbs diced roma tomatoes, 0.5 cup sliced black olives, and 0.25 cup sliced kalamata olives. Stir gently and cook for 4-5 minutes until the tomatoes soften.
- Add the drained spaghetti to the skillet and toss with the garlicky mixture. Gradually mix in reserved pasta water until the sauce reaches your desired consistency.
- Remove from heat and fold in 5 oz. crumbled feta cheese, 0.25 cup minced parsley, and 0.25 cup fresh basil ribbons. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
- Divide into bowls and garnish with extra herbs and a drizzle of olive oil if desired. Serve warm.
