This one-pot recipe for garlic lemon tuna pasta is a great dinner idea any time of year. I always have tuna, peas, and pasta in my kitchen, so it's the perfect last-minute dinner that everyone always loves! And it's a canned tuna recipe!
Bring water, olive oil, and salt to boil in a large pot. Add dry pasta. Cook 9-11 minutes (or as box instructions indicate). With 2 minutes left, add frozen peas. Reserve ¼ Cup pasta water. Drain pasta and peas.
Once you’ve added the pasta to the boiling water, heat olive oil and garlic in large pot (big enough to mix in pasta) over medium heat for 2 minutes.
Reduce heat to low. Add lemon zest and juice. Cook 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat.
Add tuna, pasta, peas, and reserved pasta water to post. Mix to combine.
