Weight Watchers Tuna Puttanesca Recipes

Steps:

• Cook 4 sliced garlic cloves and a pinch of red pepper flakes in a skillet with 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat, 2 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons capers and 1/2 cup chopped kalamata olives and cook 2 minutes. Drain a 28-ounce can plum tomatoes (reserve the juice); crush into the skillet and cook 2 minutes. Add the tomato juice, some torn basil, and salt and cook until thickened, 2 minutes. Add a 5-ounce can oil-packed tuna. Toss with 12 ounces cooked orecchiette; season with pepper and top with basil.

Steps:

• Place a large pot of water over high heat and bring up to a boil. Salt the water and cook penne to al dente.
• Meanwhile, heat a large skillet with 3 turns of the pan extra-virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes, cook a minute or 2, then add tuna and break it up with your spoon. Add olives and capers, cook a minute or 2 more, then add vermouth or white wine; stir and cook down a minute. If using whole tomatoes, place a colander over a bowl, crush up tomatoes with a wooden spoon, then add tomatoes and their juice to pan. Otherwise, stir in diced tomatoes and juice. Add parsley, zest and black pepper, then simmer the sauce a couple of minutes more.
• Add a couple of ladles of starchy pasta-cooking water to the sauce. Drain pasta, add to the skillet and toss to coat. Serve with some nice crusty bread.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the linguine and cook until al dente.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and crushed red pepper and cook, stirring, until slightly toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the capers and olives and fry 2 more minutes. Crush the tomatoes into the skillet with your hands and reserve the juices. Cook until the tomatoes are slightly dry, about 2 minutes. Add the reserved tomato juices, the basil, and salt to taste and cook until the sauce thickens, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tuna with its oil, breaking it up with a fork, and season with salt.
• Drain the pasta, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking water, and return it to the pot. Add the sauce and the reserved cooking water and toss. Season with black pepper and garnish with more basil.
