Pasta with tuna and snow peas is a dish you can make in less than a half an hour. As a base for the sauce I sauteed onion, garlic, and pepper flakes in a little olive oil. While the water was coming up to a boil and the pasta was cooking I cut up some snow peas and opened a can of tuna. When the pasta was cooked I added the snow peas to the onion and garlic and put the hot pasta in on top of them. Then I added the tuna and pasta water and cooked the whole thing together for a minute or two. Finished the dish with some good olive oil and freshly ground pepper.

Penne with tuna and snow peas

This dish is so easy and so versatile. You can change the pasta to a different shape or use strands. No fresh snow peas? Try some frozen peas or capers from a jar. To make it vegan or vegetarian leave out the tuna.
