Ingredients
- 3/4 lb spaghetti
- 4 Tbsp olive oil good quality, extra virgin
- lemon juice and zest of 1 large
- 2 tuna I didn't quite use all of the second can, that's up to you, 5-ounce cans, packed in water, drained, best quality
- dill chopped, large handful of fresh fronds
- 1/2 red onion peeled, halved, and thinly sliced, small
- 1/2 cup Greek olives pitted
- red pepper flakes about 1/2 tsp
- black pepper freshly cracked
Instructions
- Cook the pasta in lots of well salted boiling water according to the package directions until just al dente. As a general rule I taste the pasta a full 2 minutes before the cooking time on the package.
- Put the rest of the ingredients in a large skillet. Break up the tuna with a fork into large chunks and heat gently on medium just until everything is hot.
- Drain the pasta and add to the skillet, it's ok if a little cooking water comes along. Toss everything well and add a little more oil if needed.
