Ingredients:  
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 small white onion, minced
4 garlic cloves, finely sliced
2 pounds plum tomatoes, seeded and diced
1 cup pitted and sliced Kalamata or nicoise olives
1/4 cup drained capers
1/4 cup coarsely chopped cured anchovy fillets
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 pound dried penne pasta

Directions:
In a saucepan over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the onion and garlic and sauté, stirring occasionally, until tender and translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, olives, capers, anchovies and red pepper flakes, bring to a simmer and reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer until the tomatoes are tender and begin to break down, 25 to 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and stir in the parsley. Keep the sauce warm. Bring a large pot two-thirds full of water to a boil. Add salt and the pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente (tender but firm to the bite). Drain the pasta, transfer to a large bowl and add the puttanesca sauce; toss gently to mix. Divide the pasta among individual bowls and serve immediately. Serves 4.
