A vibrant and flavorful pasta dish inspired by Mediterranean ingredients, perfect for a quick and satisfying meal.
Combine the tomatoes, olives, feta, capers, parsley, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
Let the mixture sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Cook the spaghetti in a large pot of boiling salted water according to the package instructions. Drain well.
Reserve a cup of pasta water before draining to adjust the sauce consistency later.
Heat the olive oil in a medium frying pan over low heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Be careful not to burn the garlic as it can turn bitter.
Toss the cooked spaghetti with the garlic oil and the Mediterranean mixture until well combined.
Add a splash of reserved pasta water if the mixture seems dry.
Serve the pasta warm or at room temperature, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
This dish can also be enjoyed cold as a pasta salad.
