Pasta casserole with tuna and arrabbiata sauce

4 servings

30 minutes

Pasta casserole with tuna and arrabbiata sauce is a vibrant dish of Italian cuisine that combines the rich flavor of tomatoes, the spiciness of chili, and the tender texture of tuna. Its origin is linked to Italians' love for simple yet expressive ingredient combinations. Arrabbiata, meaning 'angry' in Italian, got its name from the heat of chili peppers that give the dish its characteristic spiciness. Pasta soaked in thick tomato sauce with olives pairs well with the softness of tuna, while a crispy crust of parmesan and breadcrumbs makes the casserole's flavor harmonious and rich. It is perfect as a cozy home dish that can be served with a green salad or a glass of white wine, creating an atmosphere of a warm Italian evening.
