CRUNCHY TUNA SALAD WITH SHOESTRING POTATOES



Crunchy Tuna Salad With Shoestring Potatoes image

My family has enjoyed this tuna salad for years. The salty crunch of the shoestring potatoes is a great complement to the creamy sweetness of the tuna and carrots. Add shoestring potatoes only at the very last moment as they become soggy after sitting. Make only as much as you will eat because these are not good as leftovers!

TART AND CRUNCHY FRESH TUNA SALAD



Tart and Crunchy Fresh Tuna Salad image

Provided by Claire Robinson

Categories     appetizer

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 large fresh tuna steaks (about 1 1/2 pounds)
2 lemons, thinly sliced, plus 1/2 lemon, zested and juiced, as needed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup fat free Greek yogurt
1/2 cup halved red grapes
1/4 cup toasted and chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Put a large sheet of parchment paper on a baking sheet. Arrange the lemon slices on the parchment, slightly overlapping, covering in an area just larger than the size of the tuna steaks. Season the tuna well on both sides with salt and pepper and arrange them directly on the lemon slices. Sprinkle the zest evenly over the tuna. Bring the 2 long sides of parchment together and fold down over the tuna; fold the ends of the parchment and tuck them under the fish like an envelope. Roast in the oven until cooked through, about 18 to 20 minutes; the tuna should flake easily with a fork and is no longer pink in the center.
  • Open the parchment packet and let the tuna cool until it can be handled, then flake it with a fork. Transfer to a serving bowl along with any cooking juices it has released. Add the yogurt, grapes, and walnuts and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper and freshly squeezed lemon juice, to taste. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to eat.
  • Cook's Note: Serve this healthy salad on butter lettuce leaves, on a slice of toasted seedy whole wheat bread, with fresh cantaloupe slices, or eat straight out of the refrigerator with a fork!

TUNA CRUNCH SANDWICHES



Tuna Crunch Sandwiches image

A tuna salad and potato chip sandwich may not be quite as classic a pairing as peanut butter and jelly, but it is, anecdotally, many middle-schoolers' first forays into experimenting with flavors and textures, and no less delicious. Beyond crunch, chips also add stability to the sandwich, holding the tuna salad in place as you eat. There's no wrong way to make the sandwich, but seasoning tuna salad with red onion and celery, plenty of olive oil and little lemon juice, and using kettle-style salt and vinegar potato chips are especially alluring. There's the word "optional" next to the most optional ingredients, but consider every ingredient other than the tuna, bread and chips to be adaptable according to your own taste (or how your mom made it).

Time 5m

Yield 2 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 (5-ounce) can solid white albacore or skipjack tuna (see Tip)
1 hard-boiled egg, peeled
1 celery rib, finely minced
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (see Tip)
2 tablespoons finely minced red onion, shallot or scallions
2 tablespoons finely minced fresh parsley, chives, tarragon or a mix (optional)
2 tablespoons mayonnaise, plus more for spreading (see Tip)
1 tablespoon sweet pickle relish or chopped dill pickles (optional)
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
A few large handfuls of hearty potato chips or corn chips (see Tip)
Salt and black pepper
4 slices thick, soft sandwich bread, such as Texas toast, toasted, if desired
2 lettuce leaves, such as iceberg, romaine, green leaf or Bibb

Steps:

  • Open the can of tuna, leaving the lid in place after opening it. Invert the whole can over the sink and press the lid into the tuna firmly to squeeze out as much excess water or oil as you can. (Be careful not to cut your fingers on any sharp edges). Transfer the tuna to a medium bowl.
  • Wash your hands well, then grab the boiled egg and squeeze it through your fingers into the bowl with the tuna. Add the celery, olive oil, onion, herbs (if using), mayonnaise, relish (if using) and lemon juice. Using a fork, gently fold together all the ingredients, trying to leave the tuna in relatively large chunks. Grab a few chips and, using your hands, crumble them into the bowl. Season lightly with salt and pepper, and fold again to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning to taste - more salt, pepper and lemon juice if it tastes bland, and more olive oil or mayonnaise if it tastes dry.
  • When ready for lunch, spread each slice of bread generously with mayonnaise. Place lettuce on each bottom slice of bread, then top each with half of the tuna salad mixture. Add a generous handful of potato chips on top of each (more than seems reasonable), then close the sandwiches. Press down firmly so the chips break and embed themselves into the tuna salad and the bread. Cut into triangles and serve with extra chips on the side.

CREAMY AND CRUNCHY TUNA SALAD SUPREME



Creamy and Crunchy Tuna Salad Supreme image

This tuna salad is made special with the addition of cream cheese and chopped raw carrots. Red peppers make it pretty and one or two other vegetables, fruits or nuts keep it changing and interesting. I developed this recipe after I tasted cream cheese in a salmon salad sandwich at a funeral lunch in Canada many years ago. Add baby spinach or lettuce leaves, and serve on your favorite bread or as a wrap in a tortilla.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use high-quality tuna. Look for tuna that is packed in water or olive oil, and avoid tuna that is packed in vegetable oil.
  • If you don't have shoestring potatoes, you can use regular potato chips. Just crush them up into small pieces before adding them to the salad.
  • To make the dressing, you can use either mayonnaise or Greek yogurt. If you are using Greek yogurt, you may want to add a little bit of honey or agave nectar to sweeten it.
  • Be sure to season the salad to taste with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Serve the salad immediately, or store it in the refrigerator for later. The salad will keep for up to 3 days.

Crunchy tuna salad with shoestring potatoes is a delicious and easy-to-make salad that is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. The salad is packed with protein and healthy fats, and the shoestring potatoes add a fun and crunchy texture. This salad is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
