Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Kosher salt
12 ounces penne pasta (preferably spinach-flavored)
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 yellow bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch strips
1 15-ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 cup pitted kalamata olives, rinsed and chopped
5 cups baby arugula (about 3 ounces)
1 tablespoon fresh oregano
Freshly ground pepper
3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (about 3 ounces)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook as the label directs. Reserve 1/2 cup cooking water, then drain.
  • Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven or large pot over medium-high heat. Add the bell pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until just tender, about 3 minutes. Add the chickpeas, garlic, red pepper flakes and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is lightly browned, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the olives, pasta and the reserved pasta cooking water to the pot; cook 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in the arugula and oregano until wilted. Season with salt and pepper. Top with the feta and drizzle with olive oil.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The salad was bland and the dressing was too oily.

This salad was a bit too salty for my taste, but I think that's because I used feta cheese that was too salty. Next time I'll use a milder feta.
