Tuna and Capellini in a Mediterranean Style

Cook Pasta and Mix

Start by bringing a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Once it’s bubbling, add the capellini and cook it for about 4 to 5 minutes, until it’s tender but still has a bit of bite. While the pasta is cooking, squeeze the lemon juice into a big bowl, making sure to catch any seeds. Add the olive oil and give it a good stir to combine everything. Then mix in the Parmesan, chopped parsley, lemon zest, minced garlic, a pinch of salt, and some crushed red pepper for a little kick. Gently flake the tuna into the bowl, breaking up any big chunks, and carefully fold in the cannellini beans. When the pasta is done, drain it well and toss it right into the tuna mixture. Give everything a good mix so all the flavors come together, then serve it up while it’s still fresh and warm.
