Spaghetti with Sauteed Onions, Feta and Herbs
Charlene
I’m a big fan of the ’feta’. Although this may seem a bit unusual - it’s delicious ... and super easy.
ingredients
- 1 pound spaghetti
- 4 tablespoons olive oil (recommended: Meyer lemon olive oil, e.g., Da Vero)
- 2 Tbsp lemon juice, plus little zest (if not using Meyer lemon olive oil)
- 2 large red onions, cut into 1/4-inch-thick rings
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh marjoram
- 8 ounces feta cheese, cubed
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
directions
- 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes Drain, reserving 1 cup of the cooking liquid.

Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and saute until tender and beginning to brown, about 15 minutes adding salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in the marjoram, and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the cooked pasta and the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and toss with enough reserved cooking liquid, 1/4 cup at a time, to moisten. Toss with the feta cheese. Season the pasta with salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer to bowls and serve.
notes
Can try adding toasted pine nuts, or sun-dried tomatoes
