Follow The Directions

01

Step
4 mins

In a large sauté pan, heat the reserved oil from the sun-dried tomatoes over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onions become translucent, about 4 minutes.

02

Step
1 mins

Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a gentle simmer.

03

Step
3 mins

Stir in the frozen and fresh peas, along with the julienne-cut sun-dried tomatoes. Cook for approximately 3 minutes, ensuring the peas remain crisp and vibrant.

04

Step
3 mins

Gently stir in the undrained tuna, being careful not to break up the pieces too much. Heat through for about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes, if desired.

05

Step
1 mins

Serve immediately over the cooked linguine pasta. Garnish with fresh parsley and a generous sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of white wine to the pan along with the vegetable broth.
If fresh peas are not available, you can substitute with frozen peas; just add them directly to the pan without thawing.
Adjust the amount of crushed red pepper flakes according to your preference for heat.
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese is highly recommended for the best flavor and texture.
