Directions:

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Add the onion and garlic and sauté for about 5 minutes or until softened.
Remove from the heat and set aside.
Using a fork, mash the tuna with the onion, garlic, goat cheese, pimento-stuffed olives, pine nuts, capers, paprika, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
On a floured surface, roll out the pastry to 1/8 inch thickness.
Using a 3-inch cookie cutter, cut out as many dough circles as the dough will allow, re-rolling the dough sheets if necessary.
Cupping each dough round in your hand, spoon about 1 teaspoon of the filing into the center of each dough round, then brush the edges with a little water.
Fold the dough over the mixture to form a crescent.
Pinch the edges of crescent to seal the dough closed.
Use the back of a fork to further press the edges of the dough together.
