| 1. In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the pasta until it’s barely al dente. | 2. Drain, reserving 1 1/4 cups of the cooking water. | 3. Meanwhile, in a very large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. | 4. Season the salmon with salt and pepper, add it to the skillet and cook over high heat until browned on both sides but not cooked through, about 6 minutes. | 5. Transfer the salmon to a plate and pour off the oil in the skillet. | 6. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil to the skillet along with the garlic and crushed red pepper. | 7. Cook over moderate heat until the garlic is lightly browned in spots, about 30 seconds. | 8. Add the tomatoes and cook until just softened, 2 to 3 minutes. | 9. Add 1 cup of the reserved pasta cooking water and bring to a boil, gently crushing the tomatoes. | 10. Add the pasta, olives and capers and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until the liquid is slightly absorbed, about 2 minutes. | 11. Add the salmon to the skillet and break it up into chunks. | 12. Cook, tossing, until the salmon is nearly cooked through and the pasta is al dente, about 2 minutes; add more of the pasta cooking water if the sauce is dry. | 13. Stir in the basil, transfer the pasta to bowls and serve. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
