  • 12 oz. fresh angel hair pasta
  • 4 oil-packed anchovy fillets
  • 1 small garlic clove
  • 2 Tbsp chopped fresh dill
  • 1 tsp finely grated lemon zest
  • 1 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh basil
  • 1 cup green olives pitted and halved

  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan finely grated (plus more for serving)
  • 2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 2 Tbsp  roasted and salted sunflower seeds

Instructions

  • Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until desired doneness.  Drain, reserving 1/2 cup pasta cooking liquid.    
  • Finely chop anchovies and garlic. Using the back of a chef's knife, mash the mixture on a cutting board until you have a paste.

  • Chop remaining olives and capers and add to bowl, along with the olive oil.  Mix well, season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Add pasta and 1/4 cup reserved pasta liquid to sauce.  Toss, adding Parmesan a bit at a time, along with more pasta liquid as needed until sauce coats pasta.
  • Add lemon juice, season with salt and pepper. Serve pasta topped with shrimp, sunflower seeds and more Parmesan.
