Ingredients

  • linguine - 8 wt. oz (226g)
  • canned tuna - 1 can (172g)
  • anchovy - 2 anchovies (8g)
  • cherry tomatoes - 3 cherry (51g)
  • red hot chili pepper - 0.5 pepper (22.5g)
  • garlic - 2 cloves (6g)
  • lemon juice - 1 fl oz (30.5g)
  • extra virgin olive oil - 2 tbsp (27g)
  • capers - 2 tsp (5.7g)
  • sea salt - 0.5 tsp (3g)
  • black pepper - 0.5 tsp, ground (1.2g)
  • water - 7 fl oz (207g)

Cooking steps

1.) In a pot filled with water, add a generous tablespoon of salt and bring it to a rolling boil. Once the water is bubbling vigorously, gently introduce the linguini into the pot, giving them a quick stir to prevent sticking. Allow the pasta to simmer over medium heat, letting it unfurl and cook to perfection.

2.) While the pasta is simmering away, in a preheated pan over medium heat, drizzle in two tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil.

3.) Remove the pan from the heat, and add two anchovy fillets, along with two finely chopped garlic cloves and half a chili pepper.

4.) After about a minute, return the pan to the heat and introduce the cherry tomatoes, quartered to reveal their juicy goodness, along with gently crushed capers. This vibrant combination will infuse your kitchen with a burst of irresistible flavors.

5.) Season generously with salt and pepper, then pour in a few tablespoons of the pasta cooking water. This step enhances the sauce's depth and melds the flavors, creating a tantalizing harmony that will elevate your dish to a whole new level.

6.) Linguini pasta typically has a cooking time of approximately ten minutes. About two minutes before they reach perfection, gently introduce the pasta into the aromatic sauce, letting them mingle and dance in a flavorful embrace.

7.) Turn off the heat and scatter bite-sized chunks of tuna over the pasta, while drizzling the juice from half a lemon all over. This step adds a zesty brightness to the dish and introduces the tender, flaky tuna to the flavorful pasta party.

8.) Before serving, generously drizzle the pasta with a spoonful of extra virgin olive oil. This final touch adds a luscious, silky finish to your dish, making it all the more tantalizing.
