Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
  • 1/4 cup cup lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 16 ounces farfalle pasta by weight
  • 1 12-ounce jar marinated artichokes, drained and roughly chopped
  • 1 15-ounce can black olives, sliced
  • 2 cups Castelvetrano olives sliced
  • 1 cup peperoncini peppers thinly sliced
  • 1 can 15 oz garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup red onion thinly sliced
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese grated
  • ½ cup parsley chopped

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, rice wine vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, salt, onion powder, oregano, basil, and red pepper flakes. Adjust seasoning to taste and set aside.
  • Cook the farfalle according to package directions. Drain in a colander, rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process and cool the pasta completely, then drain a second time to remove excess water.
  • Transfer the cooked pasta to a large bowl. Add the artichokes, black olives, Castelvetrano olives, peperoncini, garbanzo beans, and red onion. Add half the dressing and toss gently to coat.
  • Sprinkle with Parmesan and parsley, add the remaining dressing, and toss to combine. Serve at room temperature or refrigerate until ready to serve.
