Chef notes
I love fusion cuisine! These tuna tacos blend traditional Mexican and Italian flavors into tasty little bites that are perfect for entertaining.
Preparation
For the tortillas:
1.Preheat the oven to 375°F.
2.Cut out 2-inch circles from the larger corn tortilla (this should yield 3 per tortilla).
3.Brush the tortilla circles with the olive oil on both sides to make them more pliable.
4.Place them in a mini taco shell mold, season with salt and pepper, and bake until golden brown, approximately 6 minutes. Let the shells cool and cover in an airtight container until ready to use.
For the tuna:
Place tuna, olives, peppers, capers and zest in a bowl, stir together, and season with the oil, salt, and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready to use.
For the guacamole:
Mash the avocados with the garlic, basil, scallions, salt, pepper and lemon juice. To assemble: Fill the tacos shells with the tuna mixture and top with guacamole.
