Linguinie with "Hit the Pan" Salsa


Serves Two-

4oz linguine (I used half a package, and we have leftovers)
3 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
3 large tomatoes
2 garlic gloves, crushed
4 boiler onions chopped (recipe called for "spring onions" sliced, but Publix didn't have those)
1 green chili, seeded and sliced
juice of 1 orange
2 tablespoon fresh parsley
salt and ground pepper
Cheese, grated to garnish

Boil the linguine in plenty of water until it is al dente.  Drain and toss in a little of the oil.  Season well.  Skin the tomatoes by dipping them in a bowl of boiling water. The skins should slip off easily.  Chop the tomatoes roughly.  Heat the remaining oil until it is quite hot and stir-fry the garlic, onions, and chili for a minute.  The pan should sizzle.  Add the tomatoes, orange juice, and parsley. Season well and stir in linguine to reheat.  Serve with grated cheese.

I LOVED this dish... very light and flavorful!  I heart pasta with fresh ingredients! :)
