Yield 2 Servings, Can be doubled

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 to 9 ounces fresh or dried herb flavored fettuccine
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup purchased chunky garden style pasta sauce
1/4 cup dry red wine
1 6-ounce can solid white tuna packed in water, drained
1/4 cup sliced pitted brine-cured olives (such as Kalamata)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil

Steps:

  • Cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite, about 2 minutes for fresh and 10 minutes for dried. Drain pasta. Return to same pot and toss with oil.
  • Combine sauce and wine in heavy medium saucepan. Bring to simmer over medium heat. Mix in tuna and olives, being careful to keep tuna in fairly large pieces. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Divide pasta between 2 plates. Using large spoon, make indentation in centers of pasta to create "nests." Spoon sauce into centers. Sprinkle each with basil.

I found that the sauce was a little too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less salt.
