Ingredients

1/2 cup canned pitted black olives
1/2 cup jarred pitted green olives
4 tablespoons capers
1 lemon, zested and juiced
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 (5 to 6-ounce) can tuna, in oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Crostini, recipe follows
1 baguette
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

Blend all the ingredients, except the tuna, in a food processor until smooth but still chunky. Transfer to a medium serving bowl. Drain the tuna but do not rinse. Flake the tuna with a fork. Add to the olive mixture, blending gently with a fork. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Serve with Crostini.
Crostini:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Slice the baguette, on the bias, into thin slices. In a small bowl, mix the oils and salt and pepper, to taste. Using a pastry brush, lightly coat 1 side of bread slices with the oil. Arrange on a sheet tray and bake until golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes.
Yield: about 24 slices

This tuna tapenade is a great make-ahead appetizer. I made it the day before my party and it was even better the next day.

I'm not a huge fan of tuna, but I really enjoyed this recipe. The tapenade is creamy and flavorful, and the tuna is not fishy at all.

The flavors in this tuna tapenade are amazing! The briny olives, the tangy capers, and the savory tuna all come together perfectly.

This tuna tapenade is so easy to make and it's so versatile. I love spreading it on crackers, using it as a dip for vegetables, or even mixing it into pasta.
