Cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for another minute, until fragrant.
Stir in the sliced red and yellow bell peppers and cook for about 5-7 minutes, until they begin to soften.
Pour in the diced tomatoes with their juices and add the sliced green olives to the skillet. Season with paprika, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
Allow the sauce to simmer for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the flavors have melded together and the sauce has thickened slightly.
Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet and toss to coat the pasta evenly with the flavorful sauce.
Serve the Basque Country Style Spaghetti hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
