Description
This pasta dish combines whole-wheat pasta with tuna and Mediterranean flavors from the lemon, parsley and capers.
Ingredients
Scale
- ½ Box of whole-wheat pasta (8 oz.)
- Wild Planet Albacore Solid Wild Tuna in Olive Oil
- 2 cloves of garlic
- ½–1 t. of chili flakes
- 2 T. of capers
- 1 bunch of fresh parsley, chopped (you can use less, but we like a lot!)
- 1 t. lemon zest
- 2 T. lemon juice
Instructions
- Cook the pasta according to the box minus one minute. It will finish cooking with the sauce. Save 1 cup of the pasta water for the sauce later.
- Pour the oil from the tuna in the same pot and heat on medium heat
- Sauté the garlic and chili flakes for about 1 minute
- Add the pasta, capers and 1/3 cup of pasta water together. The oil and pasta will thicken up in this step and cling to the pasta noodles.
- Turn off the heat and add your tuna, arugula, parsley, lemon zest and lemon juice. Toss gently so you will have chunks of tuna.
- Serve immediately
