DELICIOUS ANGEL HAIR IN TOMATO, TUNA AND OLIVE SAUCE



Delicious Angel Hair in Tomato, Tuna and Olive Sauce image

You'll love this blend of tomatoes, tuna and black olives in a homemade tomato sauce. My mom would make this during Lent for the family, but you'll want to make it all year round. My husband (who hates tuna), raves about this dish. It's different and very delicious. Tastes even better heated the next day. Serve with some garlic bread and a salad and you have a complete dinner.

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Kosher salt
1 1/2 pounds ripe on-the-vine tomatoes, finely chopped
1/4 cup good-quality olive oil, plus more for drizzling
4 cloves garlic, very thinly sliced
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
12 ounces angel hair pasta
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
1/4 cup sliced basil

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  • Put the tomatoes in a large bowl. Heat the olive oil and garlic in a small saucepan over medium heat until the garlic is translucent, but not at all browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the crushed red pepper flakes, then pour the garlic oil over the tomatoes. Add 1 teaspoon salt and toss to coat.
  • Cook the pasta according to package directions. Transfer the pasta directly from the boiling water to the bowl with the tomatoes using a pasta fork or tongs. Sprinkle in the Parmesan and some of the basil and toss to coat; let stand 5 minutes so that the sauce absorbs slightly. Top with the remaining basil and a little additional olive oil and serve with additional Parmesan.

This is something I threw together one day when I was faced with an abundance of fresh cherry tomatoes and basil from my garden. Delish!

Provided by It's A New Day

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Pasta

Time 59m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (10 ounce) basket cherry tomatoes, halved
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon minced garlic
salt and ground black pepper to taste
4 ounces angel hair pasta
3 basil leaves, cut into thin strips, or more to taste
1 dash red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons fresh grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Combine tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl until well mixed; spread on a shallow-sided baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until tomatoes are soft and wrinkled, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook angel hair pasta in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain; reserving a small amount of cooking water.
  • Spoon tomatoes with their juices into a small saucepan; add basil and red pepper flakes. Mix in reserved cooking water to thin tomato mixture to desired consistency. Cook and stir over low heat until warmed, about 5 minutes; stir in pasta. Top with Parmesan cheese before serving.

Tips:

  • To make the most of the fresh basil, use it sparingly as a garnish. A little goes a long way in terms of flavor.
  • If you don't have crushed tomatoes, you can substitute diced tomatoes or tomato sauce. Just be sure to simmer the sauce for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  • If you're looking for a vegetarian version of this dish, omit the pancetta. You can also add some chopped vegetables, such as zucchini, bell peppers, or mushrooms.
  • This dish is best served immediately, but it can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, simply reheat the sauce and toss with the pasta.

Conclusion:

Angel hair pasta with crushed tomatoes and basil is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. The fresh basil adds a bright, herbaceous flavor that complements the sweet tomatoes and salty pancetta. This dish is also very versatile, so you can easily customize it to your own taste.
