Ingredients

The following ingredients have 2 Servings
  • 5 ounces olive oil packed tuna, drained ((if you're watching your fat intake, use water-packed tuna))
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chopped basil
  • 1/2 stalk celery, minced
  • 1 finely chopped scallion - green part only ((optional))
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice, or more to taste
  • Extra virgin olive oil to taste
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instruction

  • Pour the tuna in a small mixing bowl. Use a fork to break the tuna chunks into very small pieces.
  • Add the basil, celery, scallions and lemon juice to the bowl. Use the fork to stir all the ingredients together till well mixed.
  • Add extra virgin olive oil to moisten the tuna to your liking. I usually use between 1 and 2 tbsp. Season with salt and pepper to taste; sea salt and freshly ground pepper is best. Serve.
