Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 12 oz pasta
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1 lemon juice
  • 1 lemon zest
  • 2 clove garlic minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 2 tbsp fresh dill chopped
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
  • 4 oz feta crumbles
  • 1 pt cherry tomatoes halved
  • flaky salt
  • black pepper

Method
 

  1. Boil the pasta in heavily salted water until al dente. Rinse so it cools slightly.
  1. Whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, oregano, red pepper flakes, flaky salt, and black pepper.
  1. Add the warm pasta and toss so it soaks up all the flavor.
  1. Fold in the cherry tomatoes, dill, parsley, and feta.
  1. Finish with extra herbs, flaky salt, cracked pepper, and another drizzle of olive oil before serving.

Notes

  • Use high-quality olive oil for the best flavor.
  • Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to suit your spice preference.
  • Rinse the pasta lightly to cool it down but avoid over-rinsing to retain some starch for better dressing absorption.
