Tuna And Vegetable Fettuccine With Lemon Breadcrumbs Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a saucepan over a medium-low heat. Add the onion and a pinch of salt and fry gently for 7 mins or until softened and turning translucent. Add 350g of the tomatoes, the pasta and veg stock to the pan and bring to the boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for 15 mins, uncovered, stirring occasionally. The tomatoes should have broken down and the pasta will be just cooked.
• Add the remaining tomatoes and bubble uncovered on a medium-high heat for 5 mins or until the liquid has reduced. Gently fold through large flakes of tuna, the mascarpone, parmesan, capers, lemon zest and parsley as well as salt and a generous grind of black pepper. Place a lid on the pan and leave to sit for 5 mins before serving in deep bowls.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, in a food processor, pulse bread and 1 teaspoon oil until coarse crumbs form. Spread on a rimmed baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. Bake until golden, tossing occasionally, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Cook pasta in boiling water until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water; drain pasta, and return to pot. Add lemon zest and juice, parsley, olives, and 1 tablespoon oil; toss, adding enough pasta water to coat. Add tuna; toss gently. Serve sprinkled with breadcrumbs.

Steps:

• Heat 4 tablespoons of the EVOO in a small pan over medium-low heat with the anchovies, if using. Melt the anchovies into the oil until they dissolve, then add 4 cloves of the garlic and stir for 2 minutes. Add the bread crumbs and cook, stirring, until deeply golden in color. Stir in the lemon zest, the parsley, and the red pepper flakes. Turn off the heat and transfer the gremolata bread crumbs to a bowl.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil for the pasta. When the water boils, season with salt, add the pasta, and cook to al dente. Heads up: You will need to reserve a ladle of the pasta cooking water before draining.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat with the remaining 2 tablespoons of EVOO. Add the celery, onions, and the remaining 2 cloves of garlic to the pan and cook until just tender, about 5 minutes. Add the white beans and rosemary and heat through for 2 to 3 minutes more. Add the wine, tuna, and tomato, if using. Stir for 2 minutes and then turn off the heat.
• Add the reserved ladle of starchy cooking water to the skillet along with the drained pasta, then toss to combine. Serve in shallow bowls with lots of gremolata bread crumbs and a drizzle of oil on top.

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.
