This canned tuna pasta recipe is quick, healthy, and comforting. The perfect recipe when you don't have a lot in your pantry!

Provided by Natasha Bull

Categories     Main Course

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 large cloves garlic (minced)
1 (5 ounce) can tuna, drained (I prefer tuna packed in oil)
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped)
Salt & pepper (to taste)
4 ounces uncooked pasta (I used spaghetti)

Steps:

  • Boil a salted pot of water for your pasta and cook it al dente according to package directions. Prep your other ingredients while it cooks.
  • When the pasta is close to being ready, add the oil to a small pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the garlic and cook it for 30 seconds.
  • Stir in the tuna, lemon juice, and parsley. Let it heat through.
  • Once the pasta is done, add some of the pasta water (a couple tablespoons) to the sauce and then drain the pasta and toss with the sauce. Season with salt & pepper as needed. Optional: serve pasta with freshly grated parmesan cheese and lemon zest.

QUICK AND EASY TUNA PASTA

Provided by Gav

Categories     Mains

Time 14m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tins of tuna in brine (or oil)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
300g Dried Pasta (I like using Farfalle or Penne, but really you can use whatever you prefer)
3 tbsp Hellmann's Mayonnaise
1/2 small tin of sweet corn
Salt and pepper
Chopped fresh coriander

Steps:

  • I like to use a wok to make this dish, just because you can use it easily to serve up by bringing it to the table and everybody can help themselves. You will also need a colander.
  • Start by boiling a pan of water and start cooking the pasta. I always add a drop of olive oil to the pasta when I am boiling it. Then chop the onion and fry it in the olive oil in the wok until soft, then add the sweet corn (after draining the water from the tin) and fry for about 1 minute. Turn off the heat on the wok.
  • Then drain the tuna in the colander over the sink to get rid of the brine/oil. Make sure the tuna is broken up and the liquid drained.
  • When the pasta is cooked pour it over the tuna in the colander (make sure the colander is over the sink ???? ) to drain the pasta from the water. Then add the hot pasta/tuna to the wok and put the wok on very low heat while you mix everything together.
  • Finally, remove from the heat, add the Mayonnaise to taste, and season with salt and pepper to suit. You could make it look fancy by adding some chopped coriander (but we don't normally bother!).
