Pasta with Capers and Anchovies
Pasta with Capers and Anchovies (and garlic and Parmesan) is a Lidia Bastianich dish that I really love. It’s an quick, easy, weeknight throw-together.
Tuna Two-Way: Pollo Tonnato
Pollo Tonnato is slices of cold, poached chicken in a easy-to-make sauce consisting of canned tuna, mayo, lemon, capers, and olive oil. It’s a riff off an Italian summer dish: vitello tonatto. I like to garnish this dish with olives to really bring out the Mediterranean flavor.
Creamy Mustard-Caper Dressing
Creamy Mustard-Caper Dressing is vaguely ranchesque and sort of thousand islandian, maybe. It’s quietly mustardish with caperific undertones. This easy recipe will turn your chopped vegetable salad into something cravable. Toss in an apple, some bacon, beef, or grilled chicken, and you’ve got a fantastic dinner.
