An light, summery, easy to make pasta.
Bring a large pan of water with a little olive oil and salt to a boil. Add spaghetti.
While cooking pasta to al dente, mince the garlic and flat leaf parsley. Set parsley aside. Saute the garlic in 1 Tablespoon of olive oil until just softened and tender to bring out the flavor and remove from heat. Be careful not to overcook or brown the garlic or it will turn bitter. When pasta is cooked al dente, pour into a colander and rinse briefly in cold water. Return to pan. Add tomatoes, 2 Tablespoons of olive oil, garlic, the chopped parsley, pine nuts, red pepper flakes and bread crumbs. Toss and put back on stove on the lowest heat setting. Leave on low heat for a few minutes so it warms a little and the flavors meld.
I like to serve in a large bowl family style and allow my guests to add the parmesan cheese as they desire. Serve with a crusty, rustic bread, a nice salad, and a favorite bottle of wine. In the summer, fresh tomatoes, seeded and diced are an nice replacement to the canned. Grilled chicken and/or shrimp is also a nice addition to the dish.
