Ingredients

1 can Tuna or Sardines

1 sprig Parsley, or Rosemary, Thyme, or Dill chopped

1/4 fresh Lemon

1 to 1-1/2 teaspoon Small Capers If you have large capers just give them a little chop

1 to 2 tablespoons Onion small dice

drizzle of Extra virgin olive oil

Black Papper to taste

Crackers or bread of choice


Directions

Turn the broiler on to high with the rack on the top level of the oven. Drain the tuna/sardines of the liquid. Add a few capers, some diced onion, chopped parsley, a squeeze of lemon, and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Place the can on an ovenproof dish or pan and place under the broiler for a few minutes until hot and bubbly. Save some of the parsley, capers and onions to add after it's cooked for that fresh crunch and flavor. Serve it with your choice of crackers or toasted bread. Sometimes I also spread mayonnaise on the cracker for that extra deliciousness. NOTE: Try this with Rosemary, Thyme, or Dill. Or a combination of herbs that you like. It's delicious, easy, and super fast.
