Step 1

Toss cherry tomatoes, olive oil, shallot, garlic, oregano and vinegar in a large bowl. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper and let marinate for at least 15 minutes.

Step 2

Bring a large pot of water to a boil and season generously with salt.

Step 3

Add pasta to the boiling water and cook until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes, depending on the shape and brand of pasta. With a spider or slotted spoon, strain pasta directly into tomato mixture and toss to combine. Season to taste with more salt and pepper.

Step 4

Stir in flakes of tuna and serve with a drizzle of olive oil on top. The pasta can be served hot or at room temperature.
