Pasta with swordfish sauce sicilian style. The pasta with the sauce loses possession is a typical Sicilian dish, indeed right in Messina, my city. What I have revisited in 'fast’ but without losing the taste and scents. Who is of Messina you can not not know the swordfish greedy (just to say, mentions in a book by Alain Ducasse also recipes that Messina is not). A riot of simple ingredients that, put together, become a sauce from the amazing flavor, linked by the thread of the flavor. Even without the fish would be a delicious sauce, but with swordfish or sword fish (Another cornerstone of traditional Sicilian cuisine), the flavor is complemented becoming heavenly.
Differences with the traditional greedy sauce
Now we come to the differences between the rigatoni with swordfish Messina style and the traditional recipe SWORD FISH AT A greedy MESSINESE, are first cooked in the sauce swordfish touches very tall and big. Wanting to make a quick recipe, I used the slices of swordfish that I cut into chunks. For the sauce I proceeded according to traditional recipes. Once cooked with vegetables, I added swordfish. After a net minutes, I extinguished the fire and covered, to do to remain soft fish but make sure it's sent to the sauce its flavor.
This is a dish of my children ', I really love. I find this faster version, perfect for those on a budget (let's face it, swordfish is not a cheap fish) and he wants to prepare a quick meal first. A perfect combination of tradition and modern tastes, because it's easy, light and tasty. That being said, if every time you want to eat swordfish, have a look at all my RECIPES WITH SWORDFISH for inspiration, all myRECIPES WITH BLUE FISH and mySICILIAN RECIPES. Have a good day!
