Yield Makes 4 side-dish servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound green beans, trimmed
1 (3-ounce) can white tuna packed in oil, drained and flaked
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons water
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon anchovy paste
2 tablespoons Niçoise or other small brine-cured black olives
2 tablespoons fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Cook beans in a large pot of boiling salted water , uncovered, until crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain in a colander and immediately transfer to a large bowl of ice and cold water to stop cooking. When beans are cold, drain and pat dry with paper towels, then arrange on a platter and season with salt.
  • Purée tuna with olive oil, water, lemon juice, and anchovy paste in a blender, scraping down sides as necessary, until very smooth. Season sauce with salt and pepper and spoon over beans. Scatter olives and parsley leaves on top.

This salad was easy to make and very tasty. I used canned tuna, but I think fresh tuna would be even better.

Absolutely delicious! The tuna sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the olives added a nice briny touch. I will definitely be making this again.
