While waiting for the pasta water to boil, I cubed a nice piece of yellow tail loin and placed it in a pan with a load of evoo, lots of garlic slivers, a touch of hot peppers and a good pinch of coarsely cracked black pepper and poached it on very low heat.

| Poaching the cubes of yellowtail a side at the time |
Once the fish was almost done I added a diced boiled potatoe
cooked the thing a while longer, till the fish got just a hint of color and then added the pasta

| I don't think I have to tell you how to cook pasta, don't I? |
Once pasta, potatoe, fish, garlic and oil got to know each other and started to get along, I added a bunch of fresh, tender arugula from the garden, tossed it all together again
and served it with a few mustard sprouts thrown in there, more as a second thought than to give it more flavour.
Got to admit it was good...not over the top, but a good, light pasta dish after all.
Try it and let me know.
Buon appetito
