Pasta Salad With Chili Marinated Tuna - cooking recipe

Ingredients

7 oz large shell pasta
2 cups fresh green beans, trimmed, halved
12 oz canned tuna in chili oil
5-6 stalks fresh flat-leaf parsley, leaves coarsely chopped
10 stalks fresh basil, leaves torn
2 tsp drained baby capers, rinsed
3 cups arugula
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 tsp sugar

Preparation

Cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling water, uncovered, until just tender, then drain. Rinse under cold water then drain again.
Meanwhile, boil, steam or microwave the green beans until just tender and still bright green, then drain. Rinse under cold water and drain again.
Drain the tuna, reserving the oil from one of the cans of tuna. Place the tuna in a large bowl and flake with a fork. Add the pasta, beans, herbs, capers and arugula. Toss gently to combine.
To make the dressing, place the remaining ingredients and the reserved oil in a screw-top jar and shake well. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine. Serve.
