NAAN PIZZA.
Nuff said.
I kid… But actually if you haven’t made pizza with naan yet, you are seriously missing out.
Naan reminds me of when I studied abroad in Sydney and was surrounded by so many types of different cultural cuisines, I really had no idea what to do. I was still getting over my picky ways of eating, so trying different types of foods from different countries was still rather new to me. But there was this little kebab place across the street from my friend’s flat and more often than not, I would go home on the bus with my naan in hand. That naan was the best.
Anyways, we’re not here to just talk about the naan that makes thispizza, but also what we’re putting on said pizza: Tandoori Tuna from Safe Catch.
OH man you guys. Have you tried this yet?! I’ve shared a couple of other recipes on the blog (here and here) using the Safe Catch Elite Seasoned Tuna and I love how easy the flavors are to incorporate into your meals. You pretty much just pop open the can and it’s ready. I love all of the flavors for different reasons, but the tandoori one might be a favorite. The only other ingredients used in the tandoori flavor besides their elite tuna is avocado oil, coriander, cumin, black pepper, ginger, cinnamon, cayenne and paprika. And it is so flavorful!
I often use the seasoned tuna in wraps, on salad, or the occasional tuna cake… But for the sake of getting creative and making a fun and easy dinner meal that is sure to please, naan pizza is where it’s at!
How to make homemade Tandoori Tuna Naan Pizza
This can be made in less than 20 minutes, making it an ideal weeknight dinner.
INGREDIENTS NEEDED:
- Tandoori Tuna from Safe Catch
- naan bread
- tandoori paste
- ketchup
- red onion
- yellow bell pepper
- harvati cheese
- mozzarella cheese
- cilantro for garnish
Side note: I can’t believe I just listed “ketchup” in the ingredient list… I actually don’t care for ketchup at all. Never have! But I was out of tomato paste, and didn’t want to open up any tomato sauce… So ketchup was the next best thing.
So the prep for this pizza is really simple, especially if using store-bought naan. You just need to chop your veggies, shred your cheese, open up the can of tuna and start assembling!
Pop those naan pizzas in the oven for 10 minutes and you are good. to. GO.
This Tandoori Tuna Naan Pizza is also Mr. FMK approved. Can I get a HOLLA.

Looks really nice! I love using roti breads as pizzas. My favorite combination is a curried tomato sauce with tons of roasted vegetables on top! Best roti pizza EVER!
