Ingredients

Instructions

  • Slice sun-dried tomatoes into thin strips. Slice garlic. Cut olives in halves. Cut feta cheese in cubes (or crumbles if it is too soft for cutting). Slice basil in thin strips.
  • Cook pasta in a large amount of salted water according to package instructions (7 to 12 min depending on the brand)
  • While pasta is cooking, heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a 5 quart sauté pan on medium high heat. Add garlic, sun-dried tomatoes and olives and cook a couple minutes until warmed through.
  • Once pasta is cooked, take 1/4 cup of cooking water from the pot and add it to the saute pan with the tomatoes. Drain the pasta and add it to the pan. Add feta cheese and basil, toss well.
  • Serve immediately and season with fresh ground pepper on the plate.

Notes

Choose sun-dried tomatoes that are nice and moist, I personally like Bella Sun Luci the best and always keep a pack in the refrigerator. If your grocery store has an olive bar with oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, these are usually excellent as well.
