About Pasta puttanesca

Pasta Puttanesca is a vibrant Italian dish known for its bold, savory flavors. Originating from southern Italy, specifically Naples, it features a sauce made with tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, anchovies, capers, olives, and red chili flakes, served over al dente pasta. Packed with Mediterranean ingredients, it's rich in heart-healthy fats from olive oil and antioxidants from tomatoes. The capers and olives provide a savory depth while anchovies add protein and essential omega-3 fatty acids. However, the dish can be high in sodium due to the preserved ingredients like capers, olives, and anchovies, making portion control important. With its robust and satisfying flavor, Pasta Puttanesca offers a nutritious choice when prepared with whole-grain pasta for added fiber and paired with fresh greens or a light side salad.
