Recipe Summary Easy Pasta With Tuna And Tomato Sauce

This is my version of a tuna pasta dish with capers, anchovies, and tomatoes. I make it at least once a week as it is my husband's favorite and he proclaims it's restaurant quality. You can easy double the recipe if you're cooking for more people.

¼ cup olive oil, divided
