Pasta alla crema di tonno e olive is a delicious Italian dish featuring a creamy sauce made with tuna and black olives. It's a quick and easy recipe perfect for a weeknight dinner.
Ingredients: 300g pasta penne or spaghetti. 150g canned tuna, drained. 100g pitted black olives, sliced. 1/2 cup heavy cream. 2 cloves garlic, minced. 2 tablespoons olive oil. Salt and pepper to taste. Grated Parmesan cheese for serving.
Instructions: Cook pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving 1/2 cup of pasta water. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add drained tuna and sliced olives to the skillet. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, breaking up the tuna with a fork.
