Creamy Tuna Pasta with Capers
Al dente chickpea pasta tossed with flaked tuna and a velvety lemon-yogurt sauce, punctuated by the sharp, briny pop of capers.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz chickpea pasta
5 oz canned tuna
0.25 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp capers
1 medium shallot
2 cloves garlic
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
2 tbsp fresh parsley
0.25 tsp red pepper flakes
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente, reserving 0.25 cup of pasta water before draining.
While the pasta cooks, finely mince the shallot and garlic cloves.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; add the shallot and sauté for 3 minutes until translucent, then add the garlic and red pepper flakes for another 60 seconds.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the non-fat plain Greek yogurt, lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper until smooth and creamy.
Drain the canned tuna and flake it into the skillet with the aromatics, stirring gently to warm through.
Add the cooked pasta, capers, and the yogurt mixture to the skillet, tossing everything together and adding a splash of reserved pasta water if needed to reach a silky consistency.
Remove from heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving immediately.
