The whole family rated this as AWESOME! Added chicken to the sauce and served over fresh fettuccine. Flavorful, spicy, and delicious. I will make this again.

Really good! Very flavorful, yet simple and easy to make. The only changes I made was kalamata olives in place of the green olives and doubling the capers. Next time I will double the olives and anchovy paste for an extra kick. Will be making again!
