Ripe, juicy tomatoes are tossed with green olives, capers, and garlic, then finished with Pecorino Romano cheese in this fresh take on the classic Italian pasta dish.

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine tomatoes, oil, olives, capers, and garlic. Season generously with salt and pepper.

  2. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook until al dente according to package directions. Reserve 1/4 cup pasta water, then drain.

  3. Add pasta to bowl with tomatoes; add reserved pasta water and cheese. Toss well to combine, creating a silky sauce. Remove garlic; serve with more cheese and pepper and a drizzle of oil.
