Ingredients Coarse salt 8 ounces whole-wheat linguine 1 ½ teaspoons grated orange zest ¾ cup fresh orange juice (from 2 to 3 oranges) 3 tablespoons olive oil 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard 1 teaspoon red-pepper flakes, plus more for garnish 1 large bunch watercress (about 3 cups), tough ends trimmed, washed and well-dried 2 cans tuna (6 ounces each), packed in oil and drained Directions In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta according to package instructions; drain. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together orange zest, juice, oil, vinegar, mustard, and red-pepper flakes; season with salt. Add watercress and pasta, toss to combine. Scatter tuna over the top and sprinkle with red-pepper flakes if desired; serve. Cook's Notes Look for West Coast hook-and-line or troll-caught albacore tuna (available at many natural-foods stores). The fish tend to be smaller and contain less mercury and more omega-3 "good" fats than the larger, deep-sea albacore used in most cans. Otherwise, choose "light" tuna, which also has low mercury levels. Print
