Zesty Lemon-Herb Tuna Chickpea Pasta
Tender chickpea pasta tossed with protein-rich tuna in a vibrant, citrusy lemon-garlic sauce and finished with fresh, peppery arugula.
INGREDIENTS
2 oz Chickpea pasta
5 oz Canned tuna in water
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon juice
0.5 tsp Lemon zest
1 cup Baby arugula
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Red pepper flakes
PREPARATION
Boil a large pot of salted water and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, drain the canned tuna thoroughly and set it aside.
In a large skillet over medium-low heat, add the extra virgin olive oil and minced garlic, sautéing until the garlic is fragrant.
Reserve 0.25 cup of the starchy pasta water before draining the pasta.
Add the cooked pasta, drained tuna, lemon juice, lemon zest, and red pepper flakes to the skillet.
Toss all ingredients together over low heat, adding the reserved pasta water as needed to create a light, silky sauce.
Fold in the baby arugula and chopped fresh parsley until the greens are just wilted.
Season with sea salt and black pepper to taste and serve immediately.
