Christmas Eve for us is just not the same without a bowl of pasta with tuna. This recipe is inspired by Steve’s uncle. Steve’s Zio Iginio whom we lost last month was born and raised in Trento which is the Northern part of Italy. He lived in the mountains right on the border of Germany and made this dish for us all the time. This is my take on his pasta with tuna and inspired by him and hopefully honoring him today. Rip Zio Jimmy we all miss you and love you. This recipe makes 2 large portions or 3 small. You will need:

Ingredients:
1.5 large cans of tuna — discard the oil or water
5 tablespoons butter
tablespoon olive oil
pepper to taste
250 grams short pasta of choice cooked in boiling salted water
2 ladles of pasta water
chilli pepper oil + fresh parm optional

**Please Note- You can use as much or as little tuna as you like and this would be lovely with salmon too. Please adjust the pasta water accordingly to how creamy you like your dish. The pasta water should be as salty as the sea and this is your only chance to flavor the pasta.

Directions:
In a skillet on medium heat add the butter and olive oil and make sure it shimmers.
Drain the oil or water from the cans of tuna and add it into the butter and olive oil.
Break it up and cook until the tuna “ pops ” and it’s nice and golden. Add some pepper to taste and take it off the heat.In the meantime make sure you are boiling your pasta of choice in salted water until al-dente. When the tuna is nice and golden take it off the heat completely, once the pasta is finished boiling add it in with the pasta starchy water which is liquid gold.Top it off with some fresh Parm or chilli oil. Enjoy and please share it with your love ones.

-HAPPY EATING-

    I dont mean to throw shade on this personally but i can seriously not believe my ears that the only spice added to this was salt and the pepper was optional. There are so many spices u could and should add into this I dont understand how yall dont understand that this is bland
