Categories: Pasta-pd, Fish-pd
Yield: 4 Servings

1/2 c Olive oil
1 Onion, thinly sliced
4 Carrots, thinly sliced
1/2 c Oil packed sun-dried
-tomatoes, cut in thin
-strips
1 lb Elbow macaroni-penne or
-fusilli
12 oz Fresh tuna, cut in small
-cubes
2 tb Drained capers
1/4 c Pitted oil-cured olives,
-chopped
1 ts Dried red pepper flakes
1 c Fresh Italian parsley,
-chopped
Salt

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

While this is coming to a boil, heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Add
the onion and carrots and saute uncovered, until somewhat softened, about 5
minutes. Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes, lower the heat, cover and simmer
until carrots and onions are completely tender, 10 minutes more.

Add the pasta to the water and cook for about 10 minutes or until al dente.

While pasta is cooking, add tuna, capers and olives to the skillet and
saute for a couple of minutes or until tuna is just cooked through. Season
to taste with red pepper and taste for salt.

Drain pasta, and return it to the pot with parsley; toss until well
blended. Spoon pasta into warm pasta bowls and top with tuna sauce. Serve
immediately.
