French Tuna Nicoise Lettuce Wraps1 min read
Serves 2
Total Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons capers, plus 1 tablespoon of brine
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- Black pepper and sea salt, to taste
- 1 head butter lettuce, root removed, leaves separated
- 1 container oil-packed tuna
- ½ avocado, pitted and cut lengthwise into thin slices
- ½ cup quartered cherry or grape tomatoes
- ½ cup thinly sliced cucumbers
- Chopped scallions, to serve (optional)
Directions:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the caper brine, lemon juice, mustard, mayonnaise, salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Double up the butter lettuce leaves end to end, so you have a sturdy cup shape for each wrap. You should end up with roughly eight wraps.
- Drain the tuna and divide it equally between each wrap. Top each wrap with equal amounts of avocado, tomatoes and cucumbers.
- Drizzle the caper lemon dressing lightly over each wrap and top with the capers and chopped scallions, if using. Serve with extra dressing on the side. Enjoy!
