Ingredients

1/2 c. drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
1/3 c. salted roasted almonds
1 large clove garlic
1/2 c. extra-virgin olive oil
Freshly ground pepper
1/2 c. fresh bread crumbs
12 oz. spaghetti
2 tbsp. chopped parsley

Instructions

In a food processor, pulse the tomatoes, almonds, and garlic. Add 1/4 cup of the oil and puree. Season with salt and pepper.
In a skillet, toast the bread crumbs in 2 tablespoons of the oil, stirring, until golden. Transfer the crumbs to a plate; season with salt and pepper.
In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the pasta until al dente. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid. In the pot, toss the pasta with the pesto, reserved cooking water, and remaining 2 tablespoons of oil until the sauce clings to the pasta. Transfer the pasta to bowls, sprinkle with the bread crumbs and parsley, and drizzle with olive oil. Serve. Looking for more quick and easy recipes?
