Welcome to the second episode of Shop with a Chef, our monthly series where one of our Executive Chefs teaches us how to make a traditional Italian dish at home using ingredients from our Spaccio grocer and our online store, La Bottega di Terroni. This month, Chef Ruben shares his take on a recipe from his home in Liguria - Paccheri al Tonno.

What's Included

La Pasta di Camerino Pacchieri 

Spaccio Pomodoro Sauce 

Yurrita Ventrsca de Atún Claro en Aceite de Oliva

Taggiasche Olives

Delicius Anchovy Fillets in Olive Oil

Recipe

Ingredients

• 320g paccheri
• 120g tuna in olive oil
• 4 anchovy fillets
• 20g taggiasca olives
• 250g pomodoro sauce
• 2 shallots (thinly sliced)
• parsley
• thyme
• salt
• pepper

Method

Drop the pasta in salted boiling water.

Heat olive oil in a pan. When hot, add anchovy fillets and melt in the hot oil. Once melted, add the thinly sliced shallots and cook until soft. Add the pomodoro sauce and the olives. While this cooks together, chop the parsley and clean the thyme then set aside. Add the drained tuna to the pan and stir to combine with the pomodoro sauce mixture. When the pasta is al dente, add this to the pan with the tuna and pomodoro sauce. Toss all together for a couple of minutes until the sauce coats the paccheri. Just before plating, add the fresh herbs

Remove from the heat, serve and enjoy!
