This delicious and easy pasta with sardines recipe<\/strong> combines simple pantry staples \u2014 pasta, sardines, capers, and breadcrumbs \u2014 with fresh flavours \u2014 lemon and parsley.<\/p>\n

This Sicilian pasta dish<\/strong> may vary from region to region, but the basic ingredients are essentially the same: sardines, capers, lemon and toasted breadcrumbs. In my version, I first saut\u00e9 shallots and onion and then add some dry white wine along with the sardines, anchovies and capers (and a pinch of chilli flakes) for a rich tasting sauce that is finished off with freshly squeezed lemon juice and Italian parsley. And finally to bring it all together, toasted breadcrumbs are tossed with the pasta before serving. The result is a deliciously simple pasta dish.<\/p>\n

Pasta Con le Sarde<\/h2>\n

Other variations you will find in Sicily are Pasta Con le Sarde<\/strong> which in addition to the sardines, includes regional ingredients like wild fennel, saffron, pine nuts, and raisins. An equally delicious and very intriguing Sicilian pasta recipe. However, what I particularly love about this simplified version is that it is also pleasing for family members who eat fish, but don\u2019t particularly like fennel or raisins (i.e. teenagers). And since the taste of sardines can easily be mistaken for canned tuna, this was an easy win.<\/p>\n
