Roasted Red Peppers in Tonnato Sauce

Tonnato sauce--a smooth puree of olive oil-packed tuna, mayonnaise, capers & anchovies--is traditionally served in Piedmont with roasted veal.

  • 1 Jar of Mediterranean Artisans Red Peppers (about 4 whole peppers sliced thick lengthwise)*
  • 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil*
  • 1/2 cup Stonewall Kitchen Farmhouse Mayo*
  • Two 6-ounce jars Tonnino Tuna Fillets in Garlic & Olive Oil, drained*
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 4 teaspoons Flora small capers, drained*
  • 16 Vigo oil-packed anchovy fillets, drained (about 3 tins)*
  • Salt & freshly ground pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley
  • Crusty bread, for serving*
In a food processor, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil with the mayonnaise, tuna, lemon juice, 2 teaspoons of the capers & 8 of the anchovies. Puree until the tonnato sauce is smooth.  Spread the tonnato sauce on a large platter & arrange the roasted peppers on top. Garnish with the remaining 2 teaspoons of capers & 8 anchovies. Season lightly with salt & pepper & drizzle with the remaining 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Garnish with the parsley & serve with crusty bread.
