Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together white balsamic vinegar, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Summer Squash

    Slice the summer squash into thin rounds. Heat a skillet over medium heat, add a little olive oil, and sauté the squash for about 5 minutes until tender. Season with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Heirloom Tomatoes

    Chop the heirloom tomatoes into bite-sized pieces and set aside.

  4. 4

    Make the Sweet Corn Brodo

    In a saucepan, add fresh sweet corn kernels with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Strain the broth and set it aside.

  5. 5

    Cook the Tuna

    Season the tuna steaks with salt and pepper. Heat a grill or skillet over high heat and sear the tuna for about 2-3 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting time based on thickness.

  6. 6

    Plate the Dish

    On a plate, place the sautéed summer squash, top with chopped heirloom tomatoes, then the seared tuna. Drizzle with the white balsamic vinaigrette and serve the sweet corn brodo on the side.
