Preparation
Chef’s notes
Give the bruschetta mix time to marinate. It’s best to toss the bruschetta mix together first so that all of those delicious flavors can have time to marinate while you prepare the remainder of the recipe.
Don’t overcook the pasta. For al dente pasta, you want each noodle to have a firm, slightly chewy texture.
Add the breadcrumbs at the very end. I recommend sprinkling on the garlicky breadcrumbs just before serving.
