Portuguese tuna
1 Servings
Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | tablespoon | Olive oil |
| ½ | Onion (sliced) | |
| 2 | cans | Tuna (drained) (I used water pack solid) |
| 1 | can | Tomato sauce |
| 1 | Dz rosemary (dried) | |
| ¼ | teaspoon | Cumin |
| 1 | dash | Red pepper |
| ½ | Bell pepper (chopped) or 1 Tbsp. dried | |
| ½ | teaspoon | Salt |
| 1 | Tomato sauce can water | |
Directions
Saute the onion in the olive oil until tender. Add tuna and remaining ingredients and simmer 10 minutes. Jackie says this is a foolproof recipe and always turns out. She says she uses two dashes of red pepper now. You can jazz it up with crushed red pepper but I recommend that you have a cast iron stomach if you do. (I don't!) I left out an ingredient -- one tomato sauce can full of water! Also, I used green bell pepper but I suspect that it would be even better with red bell pepper. That's what I'm going to use next time. I tried it on rice, even though Jackie says she and her husband just eat it plain with French bread to sop up the juice.
