• Add half of the orange sections, mashing them a little with a fork. When the liquid starts to bubble, add the tuna, mashing it slightly with a fork so that the mixture has both paste and distinct chunks of tuna and orange. When the liquid bubbles again, squeeze in the juice of the 2 remaining oranges. Bring to a simmer and remove from heat.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the linguine and cook until al dente. Drain the pasta and return the sauce to medium-high heat.

• Turn heat to medium. Ladle a 1/2 cup of reserved pasta water into the skillet and bring mixture to a simmer. Cook until mixture is reduced by about half, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add in arugula and ladle in an additional 1/2 cup of pasta water, tossing together until wilted. Increase heat to medium-high and scoop pasta directly in to the skillet tossing with sauce until well coated. Add tuna to pasta and toss again until it is just warmed just through, about 1 minute. Ladle in an additional 1/4 cup pasta water or more, to loosen up sauce and toss again. Sprinkle parsley over pasta and toss again. Season with salt and pepper.
