Description
A quick and flavorful skipjack tuna recipe that combines canned tuna with spices and olive oil for a hearty meal.
Ingredients
- 2 cans skipjack tuna (170g each, 120g drained)
- ⅓ – ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon cumin
- 2 tablespoons chili powder (or to taste)
- 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.
- Once warmed, reduce heat to low and let the mixture cook for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- If the tuna appears dry, drizzle in more olive oil to achieve the desired consistency.
Notes
For extra spiciness, gradually add a third tablespoon of chili powder. Experiment with fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley for added flavor.
