Preheat the oven to 550°F (or the highest setting).
Place the peppers in a roasting pan and bake, turning once, for 30 to 40 minutes or until charred.
Transfer the roasted peppers to a deep bowl, cover tightly with foil, and let sit for 15 minutes.
Peel, core, and seed the peppers, reserving the juices in a medium bowl.
Cut the roasted peppers into ¾-inch strips and place them in the bowl with the pepper juices.
Add the drained tuna, sliced tomatoes, olives, and chopped parsley, then fold to combine.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, wine vinegar, sugar, and salt.
Gently fold this dressing into the salad.
Refrigerate the salad overnight to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve cold or at room temperature.
