Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp sunflower or neutral oil, for greasing
  • 1 clove garlic, grated
  • 2 lemons, juice of 1, 1 cut into wedges
  • 1 tsp maple syrup or clear honey
  • ¼ x 25g pack flat leaf parsley, leaves finely chopped
  • 4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 400g tuna steaks, cut into chunks
  • 260g Padrón peppers
  • 225g jar pitted Spanish queen olives, drained

Method

  1. Prepare the barbecue for cooking. Once lit, use a piece of oiled kitchen paper and tongs to oil the grill bars and prevent food from sticking.

  2. In a bowl, mix the garlic, lemon juice, maple syrup or honey, parsley and olive oil with a pinch of salt and whisk to combine. Thread the tuna, padron peppers and olives onto 4 metal skewers and grill for 1 minute each side, or until the tuna is seared and the peppers lightly charred. Top with the dressing and sprinkle with some sea salt flakes. Serve with the lemon wedges for squeezing.

Cook’s tip

On Dish, the Waitrose podcast, Angela served a side of Cornish potatoes, which she cut in half, parboiled, and then roasted in a pan with olive oil, garlic, a touch of Ottolenghi Sweet & Smokey and a couple of tablespoons of canned tomatoes. 

And to drink...

On the podcast, this recipe is paired with Fleur d’Azur Luberon Rosé – a pale pink wine bursting with red berry and peach, with a delicate mineral freshness.
