Description
Sicilian olives, lemon zest and garlic amp up the flavour in this delightful dinnertime pasta. Serve with a skewer of olives to really play up the martini fun.
Method
Step 1 of 4
Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil. Add pasta and cook for 12 minutes or until just tender. Drain and reserve 1 cup cooking liquid.
Step 2 of 4
Reserve a few olives to thread onto skewers to serve, if desired. Set aside. Coarsely chop remaining olives. Heat oil in a large frying pan over low heat. Add garlic, olives and lemon zest. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until fragrant. Add gin and increase heat to medium. Allow to simmer for 2 minutes or until liquid has slightly reduced.
Step 3 of 4
Stir in cream, brine and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer. Increase heat to high, then add pasta and 1/2 cup reserved cooking water. Cook, tossing constantly and adding more water if needed, until pasta is well coated and sauce emulsified.
Step 4 of 4
Stir in parsley, butter and parmesan until melted. Season with pepper. Divide among serving bowls. Sprinkle with remaining parmesan and arrange olive skewers on top, if using. Serve.
