Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tuna

    Preheat the brick oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the fresh tuna steaks with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place the tuna on a baking tray.

  2. 2

    Cook the Tuna

    Bake the tuna in the preheated brick oven for about 10-12 minutes, depending on thickness, until cooked to your desired doneness. Remove from oven and let it rest for a few minutes.

  3. 3

    Make Pesto Mayo

    In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise and pesto. Mix well until smooth and set aside.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Slice the focaccia bread in half. Spread a generous amount of the pesto mayo on both sides. Layer the lettuce, sliced tomato, capers, and the cooked tuna steak on the bottom half of the bread.

  5. 5

    Finish and Serve

    Top with the other half of the focaccia bread, slice the sandwich in half, and serve immediately.
