Roasted Garlic and Olive Pasta

Clock

Ingredients

  • 2 heads garlic
  • 3 Tbsp olive oil, divided
  • ¾ tsp kosher salt, divided
  • 1 (16-oz) pkg campanelle pasta (or use your favorite shape) 
  • 1 cup pitted Castelvetrano olives, coarsely chopped
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, divided
  • 1 tsp freshly ground pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Cut tops off garlic heads; peel outer layers, leaving papery membranes of individual cloves intact.
  2. Place garlic in a small foil-lined baking dish; drizzle with 2 Tbsp oil and sprinkle with ¼ tsp salt. Wrap garlic with additional foil.
  3. Bake 30 to 40 minutes or until soft and lightly browned. Cool slightly; remove garlic from membranes, and coarsely chop.
  4. Cook pasta according to package directions; drain, reserving ½ cup water, and return to pot.
  5. Add garlic, olives, ½ cup cheese, 1 Tbsp oil, pepper, ½ tsp salt, and enough pasta water to make a thin sauce. Cook 2 minutes, tossing, until combined and thoroughly heated. Sprinkle with remaining ½ cup cheese.
