With a few simple ingredients, you can have a delicious meal! My husband came up with this recipe while we are on “stay at home” orders due to the Coronavirus pandemic. It was quick, easy, and delicious!
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 (5 ounce) can tuna packed in olive oil, undrained
- 1 tablespoon capers, drained
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- ½ pound spaghetti
- ½ tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add onion and cook until beginning to caramelize
- about 10 minutes. Add tuna with oil
- capers
- and crushed red pepper flakes; heat through.
- Meanwhile
- bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water for 1 minute less than the package instructs
- about 10 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Drain
- reserving 1/2 cup of the starchy pasta water.
- Add the cooked pasta to the pan and mix to combine. Add some of the pasta water and toss lightly until the pasta is tender yet firm to the bite
- 1 to 2 more minutes. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
