Prepare the base: Arrange the seared hearts on a flat plate or platter to create a clean, elegant presentation.
-
Add the tuna: Arrange the MSC light tuna fillets on top of the artichokes.
-
The perfect dressing: Use the spectacular sun-dried tomato-infused olive oil from the tuna can itself to dress the entire dish. This step will add an incredible Mediterranean touch without the need for any additional sauces.

Finishing touch: Sprinkle with toasted pine nuts for contrast, add a few fresh basil leaves, and finish with a pinch of flaky salt.
