Directions
- Bring a large covered pot of hot tap water to boil. Cook linguine according to package directions. Meanwhile, mince garlic. Zest and juice the lemon (you should have about 4 Tbsp. juice); set garlic and lemon aside.
- Reserve 1/2 cup pasta cooking water, then drain pasta. Return pasta to pot with 2 Tbsp. reserved pasta water and 1 Tbsp. olive oil; toss with tongs. Save remaining reserved pasta water. Cover pot to keep pasta warm.
- In a large saute pan or frying pan, heat 2 Tbsp. olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper; cook, stirring often, until garlic is golden, 1-2 minutes. Add sardines, capers, oregano, basil, and lemon zest and lemon juice; stir and heat about 1 more minute.
