Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (12-oz) tuna steak (1 1/2inches thick)
3 teaspoons olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
12 oz dried farfalle (bow-tie pasta)
1/4 teaspoon dried hot red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon finely grated fresh lemon zest
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
10 Kalamata or other brine-cured black olives, pitted and slivered
1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

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.
  • Heat a well-seasoned cast-iron skillet over high heat until hot, then add 1/2 teaspoon oil, tilting skillet to coat evenly. Season tuna well with salt and pepper, then brown, turning once, about 5 minutes total.
  • Transfer skillet to middle of oven and roast tuna until just cooked through, about 10 minutes. Transfer tuna to a cutting board and flake into bite-size pieces. Keep warm in a bowl, covered.
  • 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



Biggest Loser Creamy Tuna Lemon and Garlic Pasta image

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.

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

olive oil flavored cooking spray
300 g fusilli
1 small onion, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, finely sliced
1 lemon, juice and zest of
3/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 (185 g) can evaporated milk (I use Light n Creamy)
1 (425 g) can tuna in water, drained, flaked
salt and pepper (we skipped the salt)
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1 tablespoon parmesan cheese (to serve)
1 tablespoon capers (optional)

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.
