Ingredients
Makes 6 sandwiches
Step 1
If using tuna steaks, prepare grill.
Step 2
Season tuna steaks with salt and pepper and grill on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until just cooked through. (Alternatively, tuna steaks may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.) Transfer tuna to a platter and cool. In a large sealable plastic bag combine lemon juice, thyme, and 1/4 cup oil and add grilled tuna. Marinate grilled tuna, chilled, turning bag occasionally, at least 1 hour and up to 1 day. If using canned tuna, drain tuna and in a bowl stir together with lemon juice, thyme, 1/4 cup oil, and salt and pepper to taste.
Step 3
在碗里搅拌香菜,洋葱,依然存在ing 2 tablespoons oil and season with salt and pepper. Pat roasted peppers dry. Halve focaccia horizontally and layer one half with peppers, tuna, capers, and parsley salad. Top sandwich with remaining focaccia half, pressing gently, and cut lengthwise in half and crosswise into thirds to make 6 sandwiches. Cut sandwiches in half diagonally and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Chill sandwiches at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.

Back to TopDelicious (especially with the fresh focaccia), if just the tiniest bit dry. Next time, I would brush the cut sides of the bread with some olive oil or - even better, I suspect - smear them with a bit of homemade pesto.

Delicious dish and a huge success. Loved the roasted bell peppers with the tuna and the onions. I didn't have thyme so I used rosemary in both the foccaccia and the tuna marina, and it was wonderful. The only ting that didn't overly impress me was the foccaccia recipe, I will use my standard recipe instead the next time I make this. Definately 4 forks!

For all the trouble and great ingredients, this dish is quite bland even though I had added red pepper flakes and garlic to marinade. Went through the whole charcoal grill thing and couldn't taste the grilled flavor. Tuna was very dry although I cooked until just done. Needs pre-grill marinating and/or mayo.

It was okay, but I confess to changing it so...maybe that's why it was just okay. I used green onions instead of red. And I put it on whole grain bread, as a sandwich. Added some cheese on top and grilled it on my George Forman (don't laugh...it works really well for quite a few things) The tuna mix is dry, but the flavors are good. Just don't know what to do about the dryness.

This was absolutely delicious! The roasted peppers added a great deal of flavor. The first time I made the focaccia I rolled the dough too thin; I suggest using a pan smaller than the 13x9 recommended.

This recipe is simple, yet leaves you feeling like a chef and is as tasty as anything you'd by in a deli! I only tried it to use up extra tuna from our Y2K stash (I don't enjoy fish of any kind) and shocked myself by having seconds!
