Notes

  • The nutritional analysis is only an estimate based on available ingredients and the recipe’s preparation. 
  •  
  • This recipe works best with tuna in olive oil. There is a great solution if you only have tuna in water in your pantry. Drain it carefully from all the water. Put the tuna in a bowl and add plenty of extra virgin olive oil and some fresh basil if you have it. If you can, let it sit in the oil for an hour. The olive oil and basil will infuse the tuna with their delicate flavor.
  • Drizzle some of the sundried tomatoes oil into the finished dish for a burst of flavor.
