Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Heat oil in a large, oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook in the hot oil, stirring occasionally, until onion is tender, 5 to 7 minutes.

Add tuna, water, cranberries, tomatoes, olives, pine nuts, and parsley. Stir in cooked pasta.

5

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake, covered, for 25 minutes.

7

Sprinkle with basil before serving.
