EARL'S MEDITERRANEAN LINGUINI
Earl's is a chain that was started in North Vancouver, British Columbia. I served for them for a few years and LOVE their food. This was one of my favourites and they've taken it off the menu. Thank goodness I was able to find a good copycat recipe on the net. It's so good you can even eat it cold!! I think I'll add marinated artichokes next time as a twist. Add some grilled chicken breast or shrimp if you want protein.

"LUNCHBAG" SWORDFISH WITH MEDITERRANEAN TOMATO SAUCE AND LINGUINI
The recipe makes more tomato sauce than you will need for the fish. It is delicious as a pasta sauce, a topping for bruschetta, or a sauce or side dish for grilled poultry or meat. For the best flavor, use garden fresh tomatoes.

Steps:
- Put tomatoes in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add oregano, parsley, garlic, onion, capers, peppers, olives, lemon juice, pepper oil, and 4 tablespoons of the extra-virgin olive oil. Stir gently just to mix and set aside at least 1 hour. Adjust seasonings, if desired. Mixture will become more liquid and sauce-like over time.
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook linguini until al dente. Drain and toss with remaining 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil. Reserve.
- To cook the fish: (See Chef's Note below if using waxed paper.) Place a small square of parchment or waxed paper at the bottom of each paper bag. Place small pile of linguini in each of the bags. Top with a spoonful of tomato sauce, making sure to moisten the linguini with the juices. Lay a piece of fish on top and arrange with another spoonful of sauce. Moisten again with juices from the sauce and season with salt and pepper.
- Fold over the tops of the bags, place them on a baking sheet, and bake for 15 minutes.
- To serve, transfer the bags to 4 dinner plates and let each diner cut open the package to enjoy the aromas.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the linguine. This will prevent it from cooking evenly.
- Cook the linguine al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. This will help it hold its shape and texture.
- Save some of the pasta cooking water to use in the sauce. This will help to create a creamy, flavorful sauce.
- Don't overcook the vegetables. You want them to be tender, but still have a bit of a bite to them.
- Add the sun-dried tomatoes and olives towards the end of cooking to prevent them from becoming tough.
- Season the dish to taste with salt, pepper, and herbs.
- Serve the linguine immediately, garnished with fresh parsley or basil.
Conclusion:
This Mediterranean-style linguine is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is packed with flavor from the fresh vegetables, sun-dried tomatoes, and olives, and the creamy sauce is simply divine. Serve it with a side of crusty bread to soak up all of the delicious sauce.
