Wha Makes Tenorio Tuna Perfect Ten?

‍

We chose Tenorio Tuna for this recipe because it's firm, meat texture so perfectly complements the crisp cumcumber and textured wild rice. This tin also comes with a bit of lemon and chili oil, which makes the perfect dressing. Here at Tinned Fish Club, we always try to get the most out of every tin!

‍

Tenorio was founded in 1880, Francisco Rodriguez Tenório founded his São Francisco factory in Vila Real de Santo António—a southern Portuguese town where fishing was abundant and preserving was essential. His early tins set a new standard, using only fine cuts of tuna prepared by hand.

Preparation Instructions
‍

Cook your rice! Wild rice really complements the flavors of the fish here while adding a bit of texture.
‍
Chop your vegetables. We found that mixing up the sizes--halving the tomatoes, shredding the carrots, chopping the cucumber--added a nice dimension of difference to every bite.
‍
Scoop the cooked wild rice into a bowl and fluff with a fork.
‍
Add the cucumber, carrot, tomatoes, and chickpeas, arranging them in tidy little sections for a touch of mealtime drama.
‍
Flake in the tuna and pour the lemony, chili-spiked olive oil from the tin over everything as your dressing.
‍
Top with chopped herbs and a squeeze of fresh lemon.
‍
Sprinkle lightly with flaky salt. Stir it up when you’re ready and dig in.
