PASTA WITH TUNA AND OLIVE VINAIGRETTE - Healthy Skin Series
Serves: 4
INGREDIENTS:
12 ounces Whole-wheat rigatoni or penne
1/2 cup Extra-virgin olive oil
2 cloves Garlic, finely chopped
1 tbsp Capers, rinsed, drained, and chopped
1/2 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and roughly chopped
1/2 cup Chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
1/4 tsp Black pepper
2 6-ounce cans Tuna, drained
DIRECTIONS:
1. Cook the pasta according to the package directions.
2. Meanwhile, heat 3 tablespoons of the oil in large skillet over medium-low heat. Add garlic and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Add capers and olives and cook for 3 minutes.
3. Stir in parsley and cook until wilted, about 1 minute. Remove from heat. Add lemon juice, pepper, and the remaining oil.
4. Drain pasta, rinse under cold water, and divide among individual bowls. Top with the tuna and olive vinaigrette.
Tip: Consider splurging on a can of Italian olive oil-packed tuna for this recipe, or any other dish that calls for tuna. Its robust flavor makes everyday meals extraordinary.
