PREPARATION

2. Add the quartered cherry tomatoes and olives and cook for another 2 minutes. Finish the sauce by adding the chopped parsley, salt and chilli pepper.

3. Cook the Barilla Farfalle in plenty of salted water, drain when "al dente" and then dress with the prepared sauce.

CHEF'S NOTE
The tuna fish can be replaced if necessary with swordfish. For a finishing touch, you can garnish the dish with some fried leek, which gives great results.
