Gourmet Chunk White Tuna – JALAPEÑO in Olive Oil
Wild Caught
Clover Leaf’s Gourmet Jalapeño flavoured Chunk White Tuna in Olive Oil is one of 2 trendy flavours.
Blending natural ingredients like jalapeño peppers and olive oil with Clover Leaf’s premium Albacore tuna creates a delicious sensory excitement and is remarkably milder than expected!
This gourmet product is packed in a 142g can and is low in fat & saturated fat, free of trans fat and high in protein.
While some may choose to drain some of the oil, we recommend you mix the oil right in for a full and intense flavour experience.
Here are some easy and quick recipe ideas.
- Pour the contents, including the olive oil, directly over hot pasta, rice, noodles, couscous or quinoa. Mix gently and serve immediately.
- You can do the same over mesclun leaves, chopped lettuce leaves or any chopped salad leaves of your choice for a salad meal.
- This product can also be served as a no-fuss and delicious appetizer. Pour the contents of the can into a bowl and mix thoroughly. Then spoon on pita chips or crackers and serve. Our creative staff have suggested adding a couple of tablespoons of light sour cream to the mixture in the bowl and mix again for a creamy texture.
- Another great idea from the Clover Leaf Kitchen is mixing a can of jalapeño flavoured white tuna in olive oil with 2 boiled & mashed potatoes to make a great and quick meal or side dish for a main course.
If you’ve ever wondered which side of the Gourmet White Tuna can you should open using a can opener, it’s the side which bears the sticker ‘…MIX & ENJOY!’.
These cans are labeled upside down, so that the ‘GOURMET’ message and recipe tips are on top and clearly visible, to assist you in store with recognizing the ‘GOURMET’ line.

Clover Leaf’s Gourmet Jalapeño flavoured Chunk White Tuna in Olive Oil was nominated as the Canadian Grand Prix New Product Awards 2012 finalist.
The “Responsibly Sourced, Line caught” logo on our Albacore (White) Tuna labels symbolize that all of our albacore are line caught using pole and line, hand line, or long lines with circle hooks and monofilament line, a best practice determined by the International Seafood Sustainability Foundation (ISSF) and Sustainable Fisheries Partnership (SFP) aimed at reducing bycatch. Circle hook helps reduce sea turtles and marine mammals from getting hooked. Monofilament lines have a less chance of entangling marine mammals.
Voted Most Trusted Canned Seafood Brand.
