Stir in garlic and heat until fragrant, about 30 seconds, before stirring in the sliced kalamata olives and capers.
Remove pan from heat and toss in tuna and warm, cooked pasta along with reserved starchy cooking liquid.
Add minced parsley and toss once again before checking for seasoning. Adjust accordingly with salt or pepper as needed.
