Tuna Pasta Sauce

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 cup onion, chopped
• 4-5 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 cup sweet pepper, red and yellow, chopped
• 1/2 cup black olives, chopped (I like kalamata)

• 1 (10 ounce) can tuna (just your normal can of tuna)

• 1 (14 ounce) jar tomato sauce (any old kind of spaghetti sauce)
• 2 teaspoons fresh basil, shredded
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 2 cups white wine
• 1/4 teaspoon salt (or however much you want, as to taste)
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Directions

1. 1

   Saute the onion in olive oil over medium heat until transluscent.

2. 2

   Add in the garlic, peppers and olives, saute for 5 minutes.

3. 3

   Add in tuna, then stir in the tomato sauce, herbs and white wine *Do not add salt to taste at this point*.

4. 4

   Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and leave sauce to reduce, stirring occasionally (takes around 30 minutes, depending on the heat level).

5. 5

   Once sauce has reduced to the texture you prefer, add seasonings.

6. 6

   Stir in freshly boiled pasta, incorporate thoroughly, and serve.

7. 7

   *I think if I had them, I would have added capers for another flavor dimension, but it's fine without.
