Tuna And White Beans Recipes

Steps:

• Combine beans with water and bring to boil. Boil briskly for 2 minutes, remove from heat and let beans soak for 1 hour. Then cook them again in soaking water over low heat for another 1 1/2 hours, or until tender, adding more water, if necessary, to keep them covered. Drain.
• Combine oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper and pour over beans while still warm. Add green onions and parsley and mix gently. Refrigerate.
• To serve, drain tuna, break into chunks and place on top of beans.

Steps:

• Place first seven ingredients in a large bowl. Whisk together oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic and salt; drizzle over salad. Add tuna and toss gently to combine.

Steps:

• Cook pasta as directed on package; drain and rinse under cold water. Drain tuna, reserving oil in a salad bowl; whisk juice, garlic, salt and pepper with oil. Flake tuna into same bowl. Add pasta, beans, onion and chopped parsley; toss gently to coat with dressing. Serve garnished with parsley leaves and lemon slices, if desired.

Steps:

• Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and chopped sage and cook until the garlic just starts to brown, about 4 minutes. Add the beans (including the liquid from the cans) and 1 cup water. Increase the heat to medium high and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly reduced, about 10 minutes. Add the kale and cook, stirring occasionally, until the kale is tender and the liquid looks creamy, 8 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, toss the tomatoes, celery, olives and roasted peppers in a medium bowl. Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat, then fry the sage leaves until crisp, 3 to 4 minutes; drain on paper towels. Reserve the oil.
• Break the tuna into large chunks and divide among shallow bowls. Spoon the bean mixture around the tuna and top with the olive salad and fried sage. Drizzle with the reserved sage oil and season with salt.

Steps:

• Whisk the mustard, lemon juice and a pinch each of salt and pepper together in a small bowl until combined. Toss the tomatoes, mushrooms, olives, capers, beans, tuna and celery together in a medium bowl just to combine and lightly break up the tuna. Add the dressing and toss to coat. Adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper.
• Divide the greens among 4 plates and spoon the tuna mixture on top. Serve with warm pita bread and lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Place the onion in a bowl and add 1 teaspoon of the vinegar and cold water to cover. Let sit for 5 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water, then dry on paper towels.
• In a medium bowl or salad bowl, combine the tuna, beans, onions, sage, and parsley.
• In a small bowl or measuring cup, mix together the remaining vinegar, salt to taste, freshly ground pepper, garlic, and Dijon mustard. Whisk in the olive oil and the yogurt. Toss with the tuna and beans and serve, garnishing each plate with cucumber slices.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. In an ovenproof skillet, sauté a chopped onion (or shallots, scallions or leeks) in olive oil over medium-high heat until soft, about 5 minutes.
• Add red-pepper flakes, salt and garlic cloves. Throw in the rosemary sprig, if using. Add anchovy fillets, if using. Cook for another 2 minutes, until the garlic is slightly golden and very fragrant.
• Add the white beans and the wine. Let it simmer until the liquid evaporates and the beans are soft, about 5 minutes, then mash the beans with a potato masher or a fork. Make them as smooth or lumpy as you like. You just want to release some of their starch. Turn off the heat.
• Now, add the milk and the tuna. If you have the oil-packed kind, add the oil. If you have the water-packed kind, drain them, and drizzle in more olive oil.
• Mash the tuna into the beans, leaving it a little chunky. Mix in the herbs, lemon zest and add lots of black pepper. Finally, mix in 2 to 4 tablespoons of any kind of grated cheese. Taste and add more salt and pepper if needed.
• Spread the mixture evenly in the skillet, and top it with potato chips. Scatter on more grated cheese, about another 2 tablespoons, and dot the top with little nuggets of butter.
• Bake until the tuna mixture bubbles around the edges, 20 to 25 minutes. If you want the potato chips to get more brown, you could run the whole pan under the broiler. Finish with lemon juice.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft, about 8 minutes. Add garlic and cook for until fragrant and soft, another 2 to 4 minutes. Drain one can of beans and add to the skillet, then add the other can with its liquid. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste, then reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
• Transfer bean mixture to a food processor and blend to a purée. Add cream and milk, and pulse to combine. Scrape mixture into a large bowl and stir in tuna, chile and half the cheese. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
• Scrape mixture into a 1 1/2-quart shallow gratin dish (no need to grease it). Sprinkle with bread crumbs and remaining cheese, and dot with butter. Bake until top begins to turn golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes, then scatter parsley over top and bake for another 5 minutes, until top is golden and bubbling.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the first 7 ingredients; toss lightly to combine. Serve in lettuce leaves; top with avocado.

Steps:

• Mix together tuna, beans, raisins, parsley, lemon zest, lemon juice, and salt. Season with pepper.
