Tips:

  • Use the best quality ingredients you can find. Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the final dish.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of pasta. Penne is a classic choice, but you could also use spaghetti, linguine, or fettuccine.
  • Cook the pasta al dente, which means "to the tooth." This means that the pasta should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the pancetta. If you do, it will steam instead of fry and won't get crispy.
  • Add the white wine to the pan after the pancetta has browned. This will help to deglaze the pan and create a flavorful sauce.
  • Simmer the sauce for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Add the tuna and cook it until it is just heated through. Overcooking the tuna will make it tough.
  • Serve the pasta immediately, garnished with chopped parsley.

Conclusion:

This penne with pancetta, tuna, and white wine is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. The combination of salty pancetta, flaky tuna, and creamy white wine sauce is irresistible. Serve it with a side salad and a glass of white wine for a complete meal.
