Double down on the olive oil flavor in this dish by warming a generous amount with torn green olives to dress your pasta. While you can use just one kind of olive, like mild Castelvetrano, a variety will create depth of flavor. Adding chopped walnuts provides texture and a nice dose of protein to this vegan dish, while lemon zest and juice perk everything up. It would also be good with soft herbs like oregano, dill or basil, a salty cheese like feta or Parmesan, or shrimp that's been cooked with the pasta in the last few minutes of boiling
Ingredients
  • Kosher salt and black pepper
  • 1 pound short pasta, like orecchiette, cavatelli, fusilli or elbows
  • ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 cups chopped walnuts
  • 1¼ cups Castelvetrano olives (or a mixture of green olives), pitted and torn
  • 1 small garlic clove, peeled
  • 1 lemon, zested and juiced (about 3 tablespoons juice)
