Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Pat tuna dry. Rub with 1/2 teaspoon oil and 1/2 teaspoon garlic, then chill, covered, 20 minutes.

- Cook pasta in a 6-quart pot of boiling salted water until al dente. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain pasta in a colander.
- While pasta is boiling, cook remaining garlic and pepper flakes in remaining 2 teaspoons oil in a small heavy skillet over moderately high heat, stirring, until garlic is pale golden, about 1 minute. Remove from heat.
- Toss pasta in a large bowl with tuna, 2/3 cup reserved cooking water, zest, juice, garlic and oil, olives, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste (add remaining 1/3 cup cooking water as needed if pasta seems dry). Serve warm or at room temperature.

BIGGEST LOSER CREAMY TUNA LEMON AND GARLIC PASTA
Adapted from the Australian Biggest Loser cookbook. Will be posting other recipes using evaporated milk as it's such a wonderful ingredient... the feel of a rich, creamy sauce but a lot lower in fat. Hope you enjoy this! I think you could use other pasta shapes too.

Steps:
- Cook pasta as packet directs then drain and set aside.
- Heat pan over medium heat and spray with olive oil.
- Cook onion for three minutes or until tender then add garlic and cook for 1 minute or until just starting to color.
- Increase heat to high and add lemon juice, zest and stock and simmer for 3 minutes. Stir in the evaporated milk and flaked tuna then cook for another 2 minutes. Season well with salt and pepper as desired (lots of pepper no salt for us).
- Add pasta and parsley to the pan and fold pasta and sauce together gently to combine. Heat just a couple of minutes until heated through.
- Serve hot in warm bowls topped with either the parmesan as the recipe suggests, or as we did with capers instead as they go wonderfully well with tuna.
