    1 Spray a grill pan with oil and set over a medium–high heat. Cook capsicum, skin-side down, for 8-10 minutes or until skin is black and blistered. Place capsicum in a zip-lock bag and seal. Set aside for 15 minutes.

    2 Meanwhile, place remaining ingredients, except sourdough and half the dressing, in a large bowl. Toss lightly to combine. Set tuna mixture aside for 10 minutes.

    3 Set the same grill pan over a medium–high heat. Add slices of sourdough and cook, turning, for 5 minutes or until toasted.

    4 Peel or rub skin from reserved capsicum. Discard skin. Slice in strips and add to reserved tuna mixture. Toss to combine.
