Pasta al Tonno

Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 can tuna I suggest using the kind preserved in olive oil rather than water, about 3 oz
  • 1 ¾ cup tomato sauce (homemade or canned works)
  • 200 g fusilli pasta
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • basil fresh
  • salt
  • black pepper

Instructions

  1. Start by heating up a large pan on medium heat. Drizzle in some olive oil and let the pan heat up.
  2. Drain the tuna and add it to the pan. Make sure the tuna gets lightly coated in oil so it will fry a little in the pan. Let the tuna fry for 2 or 3 minutes and start the water for your pasta.
  3. Once the tuna is done, slowly pour in the tomato sauce. Add the basil, salt, and pepper and mix everything well. Turn the heat on medium-low and let this simmer while you continue cooking the pasta.
  4. Optional: add a spoonful of pasta water to your sauce to help thicken it up more if desired!
  5. Once the pasta is ready, drain and add directly to the saucepan. Turn the heat off and mix everything well.
  6. Serve the Pasta al Tonno with Parmesan on top and enjoy!
