Dinner 25 Mins.

Ingredients

6

6 servings

  • 1 pound dry spaghetti
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ cup chopped onion
  • ¼ cup chopped Kalamata olives
  • 3 tablespoons capers
  • 4 anchovy fillets, finely chopped
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • ½ cup Pinot Grigio
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 3 (4 ounce) tuna steaks
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon fresh basil leaves, chiffonade

Instructions

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup pasta water.
  • While pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a saute pan over medium heat. Once oil is shimmering, add onion, Kalamata olives, capers, anchovies, and garlic. Cook and stir until onions are soft, about 5 minutes. Add crushed tomatoes, white wine, and red pepper flakes. Stir to incorporate.
  • Nestle the tuna steaks into the sauce, cover, and cook until the tuna flakes easily, about 10 minutes. If sauce is too thick, add in the reserved pasta water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Add in the Italian seasoning.
  • Serve tuna and sauce on top of cooked pasta. Garnish with basil if desired.
