Pincho de piments du piquillo rellenos de atún

Pincho de pimentos del piquillo rellenos de atún is a traditional appetizer or bar snack originating from Basque Country. This type of pincho is made with tuna-stuffed piquillo peppers. These hand-picked roasted peppers originate from Lodosa in Navarra. They're stuffed with tuna, usually bonito del norte or Albacore tuna, which is individually caught in the Bay of Biscay and it's prized for its light-colored flesh and rich flavor. The tuna is usually mixed with chopped shallots, a bit of mayonnaise, olive oil, some lemon juice, and seasonings. The stuffed peppers are typically skewered with a toothpick on a piece of baguette.
