Sweet, smoky piquillo peppers from Spain’s Navarra region are filled with tuna, mayonnaise, and capers to make a quick meze-style main dish. Since the peppers come ready to eat from a jar, this no-cook recipe is especially convenient.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the filling

10 min

In a bowl, thoroughly mix the drained tuna with the mayonnaise, capers, parsley, and lemon juice.

2

Stuff the peppers

5 min

Gently fill the piquillo peppers with the tuna mixture using a teaspoon.

3

Serve

3 min

Arrange the stuffed peppers on a plate, drizzle with olive oil, and serve.

Reminder

The piquillo peppers are already cooked in the jar, so handle them gently or they may tear and fail to hold the filling. Drain the tuna well, or the filling may become watery. Allergens: fish (tuna) and egg (mayonnaise).
