Description
A comforting and flavorful skipjack tuna dish, inspired by family traditions, featuring a blend of spices and extra virgin olive oil.
Ingredients
- 2 cans skipjack tuna (170g each, 120g drained)
- ⅓ – ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon cumin
- 2 tablespoons chili powder (add a third tablespoon for more spice)
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon oregano
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Drain the canned skipjack tuna and place it in a medium bowl or directly in your frying pan.
- Stir in ⅓ cup of extra virgin olive oil and all the spices: cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, oregano, and sea salt. Mix well until the tuna is fully coated.
- Heat your frying pan over medium heat to warm it up.
- Once warmed, reduce the heat to low and let the mixture cook for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking. If the tuna appears dry, drizzle in more olive oil to achieve the desired consistency.
Notes
For optimal results, use high-quality extra virgin olive oil. Add fresh herbs for brightness and flavor.
