1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
4 clovesgarlic, chopped
2cupsartichoke hearts in water, drained and quartered (about 1 ½ cans)
1/2 cuppitted olives, rinsed, drained, and quartered (Kalamata, picholine, or any combination)

1/4 teaspoonfreshly ground black pepper
1lemon

Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add spaghetti, stirring to prevent sticking. Cook al dente, 12–15 minutes.
While spaghetti cooks, place olive oil and garlic in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Shake pan until garlic just begins to color, about 2 minutes. Add artichoke hearts, olives, capers, and pepper, stirring to warm through. Remove from heat and cover to keep warm. Grate zest from lemon and combine with parsley, along with 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
When spaghetti is done, drain and transfer to a warm serving dish, with whatever liquid clings. Stir zest-parsley mixture into hot artichoke mixture and pour over spaghetti. Toss thoroughly and serve at once, topped with freshly grated Pecorino Romano, if desired.
