Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. (1 minute)

02

Step
7 mins

Add the peas, chopped onion, and minced garlic to the melted butter. Sauté until the onion is translucent and softened, about 5 to 7 minutes.

03

Step
3 mins

Pour in the condensed cream of mushroom soup and stir to combine. Gradually add milk, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches a smooth, creamy consistency. Adjust the amount of milk to your preference; aim for a sauce that is thick but pourable. (2 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

Gently flake the drained tuna into the sauce. Season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. (2 minutes)

05

Step
8 mins

Continue to cook over medium-low heat until the mixture is heated through and gently bubbling, about 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Serve hot over toast, biscuits, or rice.

For a richer flavor, substitute half-and-half or cream for the milk.
A pinch of dried thyme or a dash of hot sauce can add extra depth to the dish.
To enhance the texture, consider adding a handful of frozen corn or chopped celery along with the peas and onions.
Make sure not to overcook the tuna; otherwise it will dry out.
