Ingredients:

  • 8 ounces of fresh tuna steak
  • 1 pound of pasta (spaghetti or penne work well)
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 4 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 cup of cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup of black olives, pitted and sliced
  • 1/4 cup of capers, rinsed and drained
  • 1/4 cup of fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes (optional for a spicy kick)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Start by cooking the pasta according to the package instructions. Make sure to salt the boiling water for added flavor.

2. While the pasta is cooking, pat dry the fresh tuna steak with paper towels to remove any excess moisture. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

3. Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the tuna for about 2 minutes on each side until it is seared on the outside but still slightly pink in the center. Remove the tuna from the skillet and set it aside to rest.

4. In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil and sauté the minced garlic until it becomes fragrant and starts to turn golden brown.

5. Add the cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes until they start to soften and release their juices.

6. Next, stir in the sliced black olives and capers, and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

7. While the sauce is simmering, use a fork to flake the cooked tuna into bite-sized pieces.

8. Add the flaked tuna to the skillet, along with the chopped fresh parsley and red pepper flakes if desired. Gently stir everything together and cook for another minute to let the flavors meld.

9. Once the pasta is cooked al dente, drain it and add it to the skillet with the tuna mixture. Toss everything together until the pasta is well coated with the sauce.

10. Taste the pasta and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. You can also drizzle with some additional olive oil for extra richness.

11. Serve the fresh tuna pasta hot, garnished with a sprinkle of fresh parsley. Enjoy this delightful seafood pasta dish with a glass of chilled white wine.

Now that you know how to make fresh tuna pasta, it’s time to get cooking! Impress your family and friends with this delicious recipe that combines the flavors of the sea with the comfort of pasta. Bon appétit!
