Prepare linguine according to package directions. Rinse with hot water- drain. Meanwhile, in 10 inch skillet melt butter until sizzling; stir in onion, salt, pepper, oregano, garlic and lemon juice. Add tuna steak. Cover; cook over medium heat until fish flakes with a fork (8 to 11 minutes). Remove from skillet. Cut fish into 1 inch chunks; set aside. In same skillet place water, summer squash and zucchini. Cover; cook over medium high heat until vegetables are crisply tender (3 to 4 minutes); drain. Stir in tomatoes. Serve tuna and vegetables over hot cooked linguine; serve with parmesan cheese, Yeild 6 servings.
That is how the reciepe goes. Now here is what I do differently. I cook my linguine when I put the vegetables and water in the skillet so that they are done about the same time as the veggys are. I also at the bery end of the veggeys being cooked I readd the tuna chunks so that they get a good heating up again. Until then I keep them in a plastic dish with a lid to try to keep them warm. I add the tomatoes right before I serve the dish as they tend to get over cooked very quickly. I also drain most of the water that is left and then generously pour in the Italian dressing. You can serve it with the noodles separate or you can WOW them by taking a large plate putting down the linguine first and then the tuna and veggies on top then top with parmesan cheese. Visual presentation is key.
