Italian Tuna Salad With Olives & Sun-dried Recipe
Yield: 2 CupsRecipe by luhu.jp
Ingredients:
-JUDI M. PHELPS,
1/4 cup: Green beans, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
6 1/2 ounce: Can tuna in olive oil,
1 tbsp: Capers, rinsed and drained
1 tbsp: Sun-dried tomatoes in olive,
Oil, minced
1 tbsp: Black or green olives, minced
1: Scallion, use equal amounts of white and green parts, minced
1: Tomato, peeled, seeded and diced
1 tbsp: Parsley or basil, chopped
2 tbsp: Extra-virgin olive oil,
2 tbsp: Lemon juice, freshly squeezed
Freshly ground black pepper,
, salt, to taste (optional)
Directions:
Prepare an ice bath. Bring 2 cups water to a boil. Add a pinch of
salt. Blanch the green beans for 1 minute. Drain and plunge into the
ice bath. Drain and pat dry. Reserve.
Drain the tuna of its oil. Place it in a bowl and flake it with a
fork. Add the green beans and all the other ingredients and toss
well. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Chill before serving.
Judis Notes: Serve as a salad or eat as a sandwich.
As suggested by the author, I made a couple of open faced sandwiches
with crusty french bread using this mixture. It was delicious. I
mixed a little olive oil, lemon juice, and a clove of minced garlic
together and spread it on the bread, then placed the tuna mixture on
top. It serves 2 people but found the amount not to be enough. Double
ingredients if you are hungry! Adapted recipe from: Salads by Leonard
Schwartz.
