This recipe offers a new spin on the classic tuna melt by welcoming in some bold Italian flavours. The tuna part incorporates red wine vinegar and Italian seasoning for more zing, plus capers for salty, briny bursts. And in place of the usual cheddar, we use provolone. It’s an easy, quick, incredibly satisfying dish.
