Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
4 scallions, thinly sliced
1 14-ounce can no-salt-added diced tomatoes
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1 1/2 cups orzo
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 14-ounce can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
1 small green bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 5-ounce can solid white tuna packed in water, drained
Juice of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and half of the scallions and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and oregano and cook, stirring, 3 minutes. Stir in 21/2 cups water, the orzo, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium low and stir in the beans. Cover and simmer until most of the liquid is absorbed and the orzo is tender, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the bell pepper and continue cooking, covered, until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in the tuna, lemon juice and parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Top with the remaining scallions.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The orzo was a bit too mushy for my taste, but the tuna was cooked well.
