TUNA AND VEGETABLE FETTUCCINE WITH LEMON BREADCRUMBS



Tuna and Vegetable Fettuccine with Lemon Breadcrumbs image

Both easy and inexpensive, tuna-noodle casserole stretched proteins and carbohydrates to the limits and fed at least a generation of American kids very well. Canned tuna will never go away, but fresh tuna has joined it as a culinary staple, and it stars in this deconstructed version of the classic. All the elements that make tuna casserole so appealing and comforting are here, just slightly rearranged. And there's no need to serve this on a cafeteria tray: It's good enough for your best china.

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

7 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
2 cups fresh breadcrumbs
2 cups whipping cream
8 ounces cherry tomatoes, halved
1 cup frozen petite peas, thawed
1 pound fresh tuna, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 pound fresh fettuccine
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons fresh minced parsley

Steps:

  • Melt 4 tablespoons butter in heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Add lemon peel; sauté 1 minute. Add breadcrumbs; sauté until golden, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Combine cream, tomatoes, peas and 3 tablespoons butter in large deep skillet. Simmer over medium heat until sauce begins to thicken, about 3 minutes. Add tuna and simmer until tuna is cooked through, about 3 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender. Drain. Add pasta, cheese and parsley to sauce; toss. Season with salt and pepper. Divide pasta among plates. Sprinkle with lemon breadcrumbs and serve.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality tuna packed in olive oil. Look for tuna that is sustainably sourced and caught using responsible methods.
  • Use a good quality pasta. Spaghetti is a classic choice, but you could also use linguine, fettuccine, or another long pasta.
  • Don't overcook the pasta. Cook it until it is al dente, or slightly firm to the bite.
  • Use fresh lemon juice for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh lemons, you can use bottled lemon juice, but it won't be as good.
  • Add the breadcrumbs to the pan last, and cook them until they are golden brown. This will add a nice crunchy texture to the dish.
  • Serve the pasta immediately with grated Parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of fresh parsley.

Conclusion:

Spaghetti with tuna, lemon, and breadcrumbs is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick weeknight meal. It is light and flavorful, and the combination of tuna, lemon, and breadcrumbs is simply delicious. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
