Smoked Tuna for Appetizers
From Dorothy McNett's Recipe Book at www.dorothymcnett.com. This is using already cooked (canned) tuna or salmon in case you do not have any fresh on hand.
1 can best quality canned salmon or tuna
fresh mozzarella
1-2 tomatoes, thinly sliced
extra virgin olive oil
sea salt
pepper
basil
Place about 1/2 teaspoon of the cherry wood chips in the bottom of the smoker. Arrange tuna chunks on the rack, or if necessary on a flat metal pan. Smoke for 10-15 minutes on medium heat. Cool. To serve, arrange slices of mozzarella, tomatoes and tuna on plate, drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with seasoning and basil. Note: You could smoke the cheese instead, or both. No more than 10 minutes, and place the cheese ball on a heat resistant plate.
