Anchovy Pasta With Garlic Breadcrumbs

Ingredients for Anchovy Pasta With Garlic Breadcrumbs

• 8 garlic cloves, divided

• 140g sourdough or other crusty bread, crust removed, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 300g )

• 1 cucchiaino di scorza di limone finemente grattugiata

• Sale kosher, pepe macinato fresco

• 60ml plus 45ml (or more) olive oil

• 4 oil-packed anchovy fillets

• 4 oil-packed Calabrian chillies, very finely chopped, or 1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes

• 1 cucchiaio (o più) di succo di limone fresco

• 350g bucatini, spaghetti, or linguine

• 60g finely grated Pecorino

• 1/2 cup finely chopped parsley

• 2 cucchiai di burro non salato

Very thinly slice 4 garlic cloves (a mandoline works great) and set aside. Pulse remaining 4 garlic cloves in a food processor until finely chopped. Add bread and lemon zest and pulse until coarse crumbs form; season with salt and pepper.

Heat 60ml oil in a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium. Cook breadcrumb mixture, stirring often, until golden brown and crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer breadcrumb mixture with a slotted spoon to a small bowl.

Heat remaining 45ml oil in same pot over medium-low. Cook reserved sliced garlic, stirring occasionally, until golden at edges, about 1 minute. Add anchovies and chillies and cook, stirring, until anchovies are dissolved, about 1 minute. Stir in lemon juice.

Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until very al dente, about 3 minutes less than package directions.

Using tongs, transfer pasta to pot with sauce along with 240ml pasta cooking liquid. Cook, tossing often, until pasta is al dente. Add 3 tablespoons pasta cooking liquid, then gradually add cheese, tossing until melted and emulsified. Remove from heat, add parsley, butter, and half of breadcrumb mixture and toss until combined and butter is melted. If pasta seems dry, add more pasta cooking liquid and oil and toss again. Season with salt and pepper, and more lemon juice if desired.

Divide pasta among bowls. Top with remaining breadcrumb mixture.
