5ounce(142g)canned tuna packed in olive oil(do not drain)
Juice of 1 lemon
Zest of 1-2 lemons(your preference)
1 ½tablespoonscapers
1 ½cups(45g)baby spinachroughly chopped
Salt and pepperto taste
Handful chopped fresh basil leaves
Instructions
Bring a pot of water to a boil and follow the directions on the pasta box and cook the pasta until al dente.
In the meantime, in a large bowl, add the tuna with olive oil (see notes below), lemon juice, lemon zest, capers, and baby spinach.
Once the pasta is done cooking, drain and immediately add to the contents of the large bowl.
Toss the pasta and the ingredients together; the heat from the pasta will wilt the spinach and warm up the other ingredients. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Divide evenly onto plates and serve. Garnish with basil leaves on top, if desired.
Notes
*If you're using tuna packed in water, drain it and add it to the bowl along with four tablespoons of olive oil.
