Simply, add it in, along with the pita chips, before serving! Here's what you'll need:        ...

    If you're like me, and really love Italian food, then let me reintroduce you to what I think is one of the best pasta dishes. Here's one of the oldest Italian dishes ever. The combination of capers, olives, chili flakes, and tomatoes, make for a delicious pasta recipe. If not, the ultimate Pasta alla Puttanesca!  Although, this is classically made with Spaghetti, and Radiatore shape pasta, for this version, I used linguini, because I've found it helps carry the sauce better than spaghetti, and isn't as overly wide like Fettuccine.
