Sicilian Tuna Pasta: Foodie Friday

Sicilian Tuna Pasta

This is a great pantry dish. You can keep on hand all of the ingredients for this meal in your cabinet. It is also a very flexible dish, add or omit what you want. You can even change the fish and use any leftovers you might have on hand.
We make this dish camping and if we go with friends they are always surprised how delicious a pasta dish made totally out of cans and jars can be.
So Mangia!

Sicilian Tuna Pasta
by Diane Balch
Prep: 10 minutes          Serves: 4-6

Ingredients:
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 chopped onion
3 chopped cloves of garlic
1 teaspoon of anchovy paste or crushed anchovy fillet
salt and pepper to taste
1 teaspoon of  jarred capers with some juice
1 cup of green Spanish Manzanilla Olives or pitted in oil black olives
2 cans drained tuna (in oil is best)
1 jar Fra Diavolo Sauce (I use Rao's Arrabbitata)
* Can use Schar's gluten-free pasta

Directions:
1) Bring a large pasta pot of water to a boil, put at least a tablespoon of salt in the water.

2) Put the olive oil in a large skillet on medium high heat and sauté the onions. Add garlic and anchovy to the oil and incorporate it. Add salt and pepper to taste. 

3) Add tuna, capers, olives, and sauce to skillet and heat through.

4) When pasta is al dente add it to the skillet. Mix it in and let it sit for 5 minutes before serving.

5) Garnish with parmesan cheese and serve with a side green salad.

We have all been hearing how it is best to substitute sweet potatoes for white potatoes because they are so much healthier... well, this dish is not only healthy - it has incredible Indian seasoning and it is a complete vegetarian, gluten-free meal.
