Spaghettoni with swordfish and breadcrumbs

To prepare the spaghetti start by cleaning and slicing the spring onions and half of the green part 1. Now remove the seeds from the peperoncino 2 and cut the cherry tomatoes into four pieces 3.

Place the spring onions in a pan with a little oil 4, add the peperoncino 5 and leave to brown on a medium flame for around 5 minutes. Now add the cherry tomatoes to the pan 6.

Cover with a lid and leave to cook for around 20 minutes, stir occasionally 7. In the meantime, dice the swordfish 8 into dices roughly 0.8 inches in size and place in a hot pan with a drizzle of oil 9.

Brown on a high flame for around 5 minutes 10 and add the thyme when nearly done 11; as soon as the cooking sauce evaporates, leave the swordfish to one side 12.

Prepare the breading: place the thyme 13 and pieces of bread in the mixer 14. Blend into coarse crumbs, then toast in a pan with a drizzle of oil 15. 

Add a pinch of salt and leave to brown, stir frequently 16. Cook the spaghetti in boiling salted water and drain when still very firm to the bite 17. In the meantime, add salt to taste to the sauce 18.

Place the pasta in the pan 19, add a ladle of cooking water and finish cooking the pasta 20, stirring frequently all the while 21.

Add the swordfish and sauté briefly 22, add a drizzle of raw oil before placing on dishes and serving 23. The spaghettoni are ready 24 to be served.
