Ingredients

  • 150g linguine pasta
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 110g John West Wood Smoked Irish Mackerel Fillets With Red Chilli In Sunflower Oil
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 270g cherry vine tomatoes, halved
  • 200ml white wine or vegetable stock
  • 50g essential Waitrose Pitted Black Olives, roughly chopped
  • 25g fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped

Method

  1. Cook the pasta in a large pan of boiling water according to the packet instructions. Drain and return to the saucepan.

  2. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of oil from the can of mackerel in a small frying pan, add the onion and cook for 4-5 minutes until starting to soften. Stir in the garlic and cook for a further minute, then add the cherry tomato halves and cook for just a minute over a high heat. Pour in the wine or vegetable stock and bubble for a few minutes. Reduce the temperature, add the olives and continue to cook for 3-4 minutes to make a pulpy sauce.

  3. Flake the mackerel fillets into large pieces and carefully stir into the sauce. Cook for a further 2 minutes until heated through.

  4. Gently toss together the cooked pasta, mackerel sauce and parsley. Divide between two bowls and grind over some black pepper before serving.
