TUNA WITH CAPERS, OLIVES AND LEMON



Tuna With Capers, Olives and Lemon image

This is not your mother's mayonnaise-laden tuna salad, but it's just as easy to prepare. Here's what you do: stir together some canned tuna, garlic, lemon juice, red onion, black olives, capers and fresh parsley, then spread it on buttered toast. Top it off with a round of ripe tomato or slivers of avocado and another slice of toast. That's it. If you want to make it into a dip, toss the mixture into a food processor with a few tablespoons of softened butter and a bit more olive oil. Purée until smooth and creamy and serve with carrots, fennel, bell pepper and seeded crackers. If you have a tin of sardines taunting you from inside your cabinet, we bet this recipe would work equally well with those.

ITALIAN-STYLE TUNA SANDWICH



Italian-Style Tuna Sandwich image

Though an American cook (or even a French one) usually adds mayonnaise to the bowl when dressing canned tuna for a sandwich, Italian cooks invariably anoint theirs with olive oil instead. Capers, olives and anchovy often join the festivities; here they are combined with garlic and parsley to make a zesty salsa verde. Choose the best quality Italian or Spanish canned tuna-the extra cost is well worth it. The other essential ingredient is freshly baked bread, like a good crisp baguette or crusty ciabatta roll.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     dinner, lunch, quick, sandwiches, main course

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup Italian parsley leaves, washed and dried
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more as needed
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup roughly chopped green olives, such as Castelvetrano
3 or 4 anchovy fillets, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped capers
Zest of 1 lemon
Pinch of crushed red pepper
Salt and pepper
1 baguette or 4 ciabatta rolls
Handful of lettuce leaves, arugula or watercress
8 ounces best quality oil packed tuna, drained, in large chunks
4 hard-boiled eggs
Salt and pepper
1 serrano chile, thinly sliced, optional

Steps:

  • Make the salsa verde: Whiz parsley leaves and 1/2 cup oil in a food processor or blender to a pesto-like consistency, then transfer to a small bowl. (Alternatively, chop parsley by hand and combine with oil.) Add garlic, chopped olives, anchovies, capers, lemon zest and red pepper to parsley mixture and stir well. Season with salt if necessary and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Thin with more oil as desired.
  • Cut baguette crosswise into 4 equal pieces, then split each lengthwise with a serrated knife. (If using rolls, split each lengthwise.) For each sandwich, lay bread flat, crust side down. Spread cut sides with 2 tablespoons salsa verde. Put a few lettuce leaves on 1 piece of bread and arrange 2 ounces of tuna over lettuce. Top tuna with 1 egg, quartered. Season egg lightly with salt and pepper. Add sliced serrano chile, if using. Drizzle with a little more salsa verde, then press sandwich closed.
