Grilled Tuna Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Tuna

   Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Brush the tuna steaks with olive oil, and season both sides with salt and black pepper.

2. 2

   Grill the Tuna

   Place the tuna steaks on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer if desired. Remove from the grill and let rest.

3. 3

   Cook the Spinach

   In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute, then add the spinach. Cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

4. 4

   Prepare the Truffled Polenta

   In a saucepan, bring vegetable broth to a boil. Gradually whisk in the polenta, reducing heat to low. Stir constantly for about 5-7 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in truffle oil.

5. 5

   Make the Charred Heirloom Tomato Butter Sauce

   In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add chopped heirloom tomatoes and cook until they start to break down and caramelize, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in fresh basil and season with salt and pepper.

6. 6

   Serve

   Plate the grilled tuna on a bed of wilted spinach, alongside a serving of truffled polenta. Drizzle with charred heirloom tomato butter sauce before serving.
