Penne Rigate
Ingredients
- 1 box Dreamfields® Penne
- 1 ½ tablespoons olive oil
- 5 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 ½ tablespoons flat-leaf parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 3 tablespoons capers, drained
- ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 2 (5 oz) cans imported oil-packed tuna
- 2 ounces grated Pecorino Romano or Parmesan cheese (optional)
Directions
- Cook pasta in a large pot of water until al dente. Reserve 1 ½ cups pasta water; drain.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add tuna with its oil and garlic and cook, stirring a few times until garlic is softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in capers and pepper flakes, and cook for 30 seconds. Add 1 cup reserved pasta water; bring to a simmer. Add cooked pasta and simmer, tossing a few times until liquid is reduced to a sauce that coats pasta.
- Remove from heat and toss in lemon zest and juice, oil and parsley; season with pepper. Serve sprinkled with more pepper flakes and grated cheese.
