Instructions

  1. 1.

    Preheat the grill or set the oven to its highest temperature.

    Clean, wash, and cut the paprika lengthwise into eight pieces. Grill under the heat source or in the oven with the cut side down until the skin darkens and blisters; remove, cool, then peel off the skin.

    Peel and press the garlic, mix with mustard, vinegar, ½ tsp salt, pepper, and the remaining olive oil in a bowl to make a vinaigrette.

    Slice tomatoes thinly, wash basil leaves, and pluck them. Peel the onion and slice into thin rings.

  6. 6.

    Pit olives, wash lettuce, pat dry, and chop finely.

    Toss tuna roughly apart with your hands.

  8. 8.

    Halve the baguette buns, hollow out slightly, and drizzle each half with 1 tsp vinaigrette.

    Top the lower bun halves first with tomato slices, then basil, tuna, paprika, and onion rings.

    Combine remaining vinaigrette with lettuce and olives, pour over onion rings. Place upper bun halves on top, press lightly, wrap in foil, and refrigerate for about 2 hours.
