Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 (6-ounce) cans dark meat tuna, packed in olive oil
2 (15-ounce) cans cannelini white beans, drained and rinsed
1/3 cup small capers, nonpareil in brine, drained and rinsed
6 tablespoons red wine vinegar
Sea salt and fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, add the tuna, reserving the olive oil in a separate small bowl. Break tuna into bite-size pieces with a large fork. Add the beans and capers.

ONE-PAN TUNA-WHITE BEAN CASSEROLE



One-Pan Tuna-White Bean Casserole image

This is not the classic, cream-of-something soup tuna casserole you may be familiar with. It's based on a recipe for a Breton tuna and white bean gratin from the food writer Diana Henry's cookbook, "Simple" (Mitchell Beazley, 2016). Several steps were eliminated, and an essential potato chip topping was added, which may put it squarely into tuna casserole territory. But you can call it whatever you like. (This recipe is part of the From the Pantry series, started in the days after the coronavirus lockdown.)

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 onion, 2 shallots, 4 scallions or 2 leeks, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
Pinch of red-pepper flakes
Pinch of kosher salt
6 garlic cloves, sliced
1 rosemary sprig (optional)
2 anchovy fillets (optional)
2 (15-ounce) cans white beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup white wine, or use water or broth
1/4 cup milk
2 (5-ounce) cans of tuna
1 to 2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs such as parsley, basil, tarragon, chives or a combination
Zest of 1/2 lemon
Kosher salt and black pepper
4 to 6 tablespoons grated cheese (any kind, though Gruyère, Cheddar, Parmesan or Jarlsberg would be great)
1/2 cup potato chips, crushed
1 tablespoon butter, cut into small pieces
Lemon juice, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. In an ovenproof skillet, sauté a chopped onion (or shallots, scallions or leeks) in olive oil over medium-high heat until soft, about 5 minutes.
  • Add red-pepper flakes, salt and garlic cloves. Throw in the rosemary sprig, if using. Add anchovy fillets, if using. Cook for another 2 minutes, until the garlic is slightly golden and very fragrant.
  • Add the white beans and the wine. Let it simmer until the liquid evaporates and the beans are soft, about 5 minutes, then mash the beans with a potato masher or a fork. Make them as smooth or lumpy as you like. You just want to release some of their starch. Turn off the heat.
  • Now, add the milk and the tuna. If you have the oil-packed kind, add the oil. If you have the water-packed kind, drain them, and drizzle in more olive oil.
  • Mash the tuna into the beans, leaving it a little chunky. Mix in the herbs, lemon zest and add lots of black pepper. Finally, mix in 2 to 4 tablespoons of any kind of grated cheese. Taste and add more salt and pepper if needed.
  • Spread the mixture evenly in the skillet, and top it with potato chips. Scatter on more grated cheese, about another 2 tablespoons, and dot the top with little nuggets of butter.
  • Bake until the tuna mixture bubbles around the edges, 20 to 25 minutes. If you want the potato chips to get more brown, you could run the whole pan under the broiler. Finish with lemon juice.

Tips:

  • Use Canned Tuna: Opt for tuna packed in olive oil or water for a healthier and more flavorful option. Avoid tuna packed in vegetable oil, which contains unhealthy fats.
  • Choose Fresh Lettuce: Select crisp and vibrant lettuce leaves for the wraps. Avoid wilted or bruised leaves.
  • Customize the Veggies: Feel free to add or substitute other vegetables according to your preference. Some great options include shredded carrots, cucumbers, bell peppers, or zucchini.
  • Make it a Meal: Serve the lettuce wraps with a side of quinoa, brown rice, or a mixed green salad for a complete meal.
  • Meal Prep: Prepare the tuna salad and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Assemble the lettuce wraps just before serving.
