Instructions:

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta cooking water, then drain the pasta.
  2. While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil from the sardine cans (or extra-virgin olive oil) in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes. Sauté for about 1-2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant and slightly golden.
  3. Gently add the drained sardines to the skillet, breaking them apart with a fork. Add the lemon zest and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  4. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the sardine mixture. Toss everything together to coat the pasta with the flavors. If the mixture seems dry, you can add a splash of the reserved pasta cooking water to create a light sauce.
  5. Squeeze the juice of the lemon over the pasta and sardine mixture. Add chopped fresh parsley and toss to combine. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  6. Divide the sardine pasta among plates. If desired, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over each serving. Serve immediately.

 

This sardine pasta is quick to make and offers a delightful balance of flavors. It's a great way to incorporate the nutritional benefits of sardines into a satisfying pasta dish.
