Amici's Pasta Puttanesca

I have looked and tried for years to recreate the former Indianpolis Amici's Restaurant and I have now come up with what I love. Tons of flavor with olives and capers and more.

Ingredients

1 28-ounce can of whole peeled tomatoes

4 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons freshly grated garlic

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

1 cup roughly chopped kalamata olives

3 tablespoons capers

salt and pepper

pasta

Directions

Step 1: Place the whole tomatoes in a large bowl, use your hands to squeeze and crush the tomatoes into a sauce.

Step 2: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet set over medium heat. Add the grated garlic and red pepper flakes: fry for about a minute. Immediately add the tomatoes, olive, capers, salt, pepper to pan. Stir well; turn the heat down and cook uncovered for about 20-30 minutes.

Step 3: Cook pasta to al dente, drain and add to sauce and finish pasta in sauce.
