Ingredients: 500 grams whole wheat spaghetti noodles; 6 tablespoons Queensland butter; 16 dried basil leaves; 4 cans Century Tuna in vegetable oil; 4 tablespoons (squares) Knorr chicken cubes; 6 tablespoons Queso (Parmesan cheese would have been better, but I had a tight budget); salt and pepper to taste (optional; I didn't have to use this because the tuna, basil, and butter were flavorful enough)

Cook noodles according to package directions.
Melt butter over low-medium heat. Once the butter is melted, add the basil, cooking until the basil turns dark green. After a minute or two, set aside the basil leaves. Toss in tuna.
Add the chicken broth to the tuna and butter sauce followed by the pasta and cheese. Toss to coat. Add some pasta water if the sauce is too dry.
Turn off heat. Top pasta with basil leaves (and more cheese) before serving. :)
