Categories     dinner, pastas, main course

Time 1h

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup olive oil
1 medium-sized onion, diced
3 large cloves garlic, peeled and minced
1 pound mixture of green and yellow beans, ends trimmed, and sliced at an angle into 1/2-inch pieces
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 1/4 pounds spaghetti, fresh or dried
30 Calamata olives, pitted and chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 large tomatoes, peeled, seeded and diced
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
6 tablespoons butter
1/2 pound feta cheese, cubed

Steps:

  • In a small saute pan, heat the olive oil over medium-low heat, add the onion and cook slowly until it is translucent. Add the three cloves of minced garlic and continue cooking for one minute. Add the beans and cover the pan. Cook slowly for about 30 minutes, until the beans are soft. If the mixture dries, add a few tablespoons of water. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Add the spaghetti and boil for about two to three minutes if using fresh pasta or 10 to 12 minutes if using dried, until the spaghetti is al dente. (Depending on the brand of spaghetti, cooking times may vary.) Drain well.
  • In a small bowl, combine the chopped olives with the finely chopped garlic. Set aside.
  • In another small bowl, toss the diced tomatoes with the fresh lemon juice. Set aside.
  • In a large saute pan, heat the butter until it is nut-colored. Add the cooked pasta and toss. Add the feta cheese and stir until slightly softened, about five to seven minutes.
  • Transfer a portion of the pasta onto each plate. In a straight line down the center of the plate, top the spaghetti with one mound of the bean mixture, one of the tomato-lemon mixture and a pile of the olive-garlic mixture. Serve immediately.

SPAGHETTI WITH TOMATOES GARLIC AND FETA CHEESE



Spaghetti with Tomatoes Garlic and Feta Cheese image

A great summer pasta dish. The Feta cheese is a wonderful match for the tomatoes, and the heat of the spaghetti and garlic oil makes the cheese soft. This is a recipe you can change to your own likes. Try using Mozzarella instead of Feta, or using fresh basil, or fresh herbs instead of parsley.

PASTA WITH FETA AND GREEN OLIVES



Pasta With Feta and Green Olives image

Bold, briny and tangy, this 15-minute pasta is full of personality. Olives are first slightly blistered in oil, drawing out their brininess, then crumbled feta is stirred into the pasta at the end until melty. Keep the feta chunky when breaking it apart so that the squares become soft and creamy, tasting almost baked. Castelvetrano olives are best here for their meaty texture and gentle flavor, but you can also use your preferred olive. Smash them with the flat side of a chef's knife - or even the heel of your palm in a pinch - then use your fingers to pluck the olive flesh off the pit. Any stubborn meat clinging to the pit is fair game to be eaten then and there.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Kosher salt
1 pound dried cavatappi, fusilli or other short, curly noodle
1/3 cup olive oil
12 ounces green olives, such as Castelvetrano or Cerignola, smashed and pitted
1 garlic clove, grated or minced
1 lemon, zested and juiced (about 1 tablespoon zest and 3 tablespoons juice)
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes, plus more as desired
1/2 to ¾ cup loosely crumbled or cubed feta, depending on preference
Black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook at a gentle boil until al dente, about 2 minutes less than the package instructions.
  • Meanwhile, in a saucepan or skillet, heat the oil over medium-high until shimmering. Add the olives, cooking until they start to blister in spots, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat, then add in the garlic, lemon zest and red-pepper flakes, stirring constantly for about 30 seconds, then let sit uncovered until the pasta is finished.
  • Reserve 1 cup pasta water, drain the pasta, then return it to the pot over medium-low heat. Pour in the olive mixture, the lemon juice and ¾ cup pasta water, and stir well for 1 to 2 minutes until the noodles are coated in a smooth, glossy sauce, adding more water if needed. Turn off the heat, stir in the feta and let it soften and melt slightly. Finish with a grind or two of black pepper and a sprinkle of red-pepper flakes, if desired. Season to taste with salt, and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use good quality feta cheese: Feta is the star of this dish, so it's important to use a good quality cheese. Look for a feta that is creamy and flavorful, with a slightly tangy taste.
  • Don't overcook the garlic: Garlic can burn easily, so be careful not to overcook it. Cook the garlic until it is fragrant and slightly browned, but not black.
  • Use a variety of olives: Different types of olives will give your dish different flavors. Try using a mix of black olives, green olives, and Kalamata olives.
  • Add some heat: If you like your food spicy, you can add some red pepper flakes or chili peppers to the dish. This will give it a nice kick of heat.
  • Serve with a side of bread: Spaghetti with feta, olives, and garlic beans is a delicious meal on its own, but it's even better when served with a side of crusty bread. This will help you soak up all of the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

Spaghetti with feta, olives, and garlic beans is a quick and easy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover spaghetti. This dish is packed with flavor, thanks to the salty feta, briny olives, and garlicky beans. It's also a healthy and filling meal, thanks to the whole wheat spaghetti and protein-packed beans.
