With a few cans of tuna on your pantry shelves, dinner is only an arm's length — and just a few minutes — away.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 minced cloves of garlic
  • 1 small chopped sweet red peppers or roasted red peppers
  • 4 chopped green onions
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 2 cans (6 oz/170 g each) tuna, drained and broken in chunks
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 4 cups fusilli pasta

Preparation

In skillet, heat oil over medium heat; cook garlic, red pepper and half of the onions for 2 minutes.

Stir in chicken stock; bring to boil. Reduce heat; simmer for 5 minutes. Add drained tuna, salt and pepper; heat through.

Meanwhile, in large pot of boiling salted water, cook fusilli for about 8 minutes or until tender but firm. Drain and return to pot. Add tuna sauce; toss to coat. Serve sprinkled with remaining green onions.
 

Additional information :

Tip: Choose water-packed tuna instead of oil-packed to keep the dish as low in fat as it is high in flavour. Chunk or whole tuna won't fall apart when tossed with the pasta.
