Steps:

• In a heavy bottom pot add a lug of olive oil over low flame.

• Partially cover the sauce with a lid and let it cook down for about 35 minutes until reduced and thickened to your liking. Stir often.
• Remove the sauce from flame and adjust seasonings to your taste with the sea salt.
• Meanwhile cook the spaghetti al dente and toss them with the puttanesca sauce.
• Serve hot, garnished with the remaining olives and fresh parsley.

GRILLED BROCCOLI WITH APRICOT PUTTANESCA

Steps:

• Cut dried apricots into small pieces (about 6 pieces per apricot) and place in a small saucepan; add enough vinegar to cover. Slowly bring mixture to a simmer. When liquid is simmering, remove from heat and strain the apricots, reserving the cooking liquid. In a small bowl, mix drained apricots with the capers, olives, chiles and oregano.
• In a separate small bowl, whisk 1/8 cup of the reserved apricot cooking liquid with 1/2 cup olive oil and the lemon juice to make a dressing. (Puttanesca and dressing can be made in advance.)
• Heat grill to high. In a large bowl, toss broccoli with olive oil to coat; lightly season with salt.
• Place broccoli directly on the grill (or in a grill basket, if you have one) and cook, covered, until the outsides are beginning to char, about 3 minutes. Flip broccoli and cook 2 more minutes, or until it is tender and nicely charred.
• Remove broccoli from grill and toss with onion, apricot puttanesca and dressing until evenly coated. Transfer to a serving platter and serve right away, or reserve and serve at room temperature later.
