Serves 6
This lusty tomato sauce is laden with bold flavors — olives, capers, red pepper flakes and garlic. Chopped arugula tossed in at the final stage of cooking brings in a fresh green dimension and a peppery taste that can hold its own.

INGREDIENTS
Cook the spaghetti according to the package directions.
While the pasta is cooking, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the parsley, olives, capers, anchovy paste, oregano and red pepper and cook for another 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes and simmer for about 5 minutes. Stir in the arugula and simmer for another minute, just until the greens wilt slightly.
When the pasta is done, drain and add it to the skillet, tossing it with the sauce to combine.
Divide between 6 plates, sprinkle with the Parmesan, and serve.
