    While the fettuccine is cooking, heat olive oil in a pan over low heat.

  3. 3

    Add onion and cook for 3 minutes or until it just starts to soften.

    Then, add garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.

  5. 5

    Add tomatoes, olives, capers, lemon juice, pepper flakes, and sardines (including the oil) and cook for 4 minutes. When adding the sardines, lightly break up the fillets with a fork.

    Next, add reserved pasta water and freshly ground black pepper to taste and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

  7. 7

    Finally, add cooked fettuccine to the pan and toss in the sauce.
