Ingredients
- 400 grams spaghetti
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
- 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 400 grams crushed tomatoes
- 100 grams pimento-stuffed green olives, sliced
- 100 milliliters dry white wine (optional)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and diced red bell pepper. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until softened.
Step 3
Stir in the minced garlic and smoked paprika. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, to release the aroma.
Step 4
Add the crushed tomatoes and stir to combine. If using white wine, pour it in at this stage and simmer for 2-3 minutes to allow the alcohol to evaporate.
Step 5
Reduce the heat to low and add the pimento-stuffed green olives. Season with salt and black pepper. Simmer the sauce for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 6
Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet and toss until the pasta is evenly coated with the sauce.
Step 7
Serve hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley. Optionally, add grated Parmesan cheese or a drizzle of olive oil for extra flavor.
