Tuna Steak With Black Olive Vinaigrette Recipes

Steps:

• For the Rib-eye: Preheat your grill pan on medium high heat. Coat the beef with olive oil and sprinkle with the Herbs de Provence, salt, and pepper. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes a side until the meat is medium-rare, remove from heat, and allow to rest.
• For the Black Olive Vinaigrette: Combine the olives, red wine vinegar, mustard, garlic, salt, and pepper in a blender and blend until mixed. In a small pitcher combine the olive oil and vegetable oil. Drizzle the oil into the blender with the machine running. Transfer the vinaigrette to a serving dish. Stir in the parsley and serve with the rib-eye.

Steps:

• Place lemon juice in small bowl. Whisk in 1/2 cup olive oil, then olive puree. Season vinaigrette to taste with salt and pepper.
• Sprinkle tuna with salt and pepper; rub with remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Heat heavy large skillet over high heat. Add tuna to skillet; brown on all sides, turning occasionally, about 10 minutes. Transfer tuna to plate; chill 30 minutes.
• Thinly slice tuna crosswise, reserving any scraps. Spoon 1 tablespoon vinaigrette onto each of 6 plates. Arrange tuna slices, overlapping slightly, in circle on each plate. Spoon remaining vinaigrette over tuna. Dice any tuna scraps; place in center of circle. Sprinkle with chives.

Steps:

• In a heavy skillet, preferably non-stick, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over moderately high heat until it is hot but not smoking and in it sautée the tuna steaks, patted dry and seasoned with salt and pepper, for 4 to 5 minutes on each side, or until they are just cooked through. While the tuna is cooking, in a blender or small food processor blend together the olives, the capers, the garlic, the mustard, the vinegar, the tomato, the water, and salt and pepper to taste and with the motor running add the remaining 3 tablespoons oil, blending the dressing until it is emulsified. Transfer the tuna to plates and wipe the skillet clean. Pour the dressing into the skillet, heat it over moderate heat until it is hot, and stir in 2 tablespoons of the roasted peppers and 1 tablespoon of the scallion. Spoon the dressing over the tuna, garnish the tuna with the additional roasted peppers and scallion, and serve it with the lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Stir together 1/2 cup olive oil, 1 tablespoon parsley, and red pepper flakes. Toss tuna with marinade, and set aside to marinate for 30 minutes.
• Pour vinegar, orange juice, lemon juice, lime juice, and soy sauce into the bowl of a blender. Add shallot, 1 tablespoon parsley, thyme, dill, honey, Dijon mustard, jalapeno, and ginger. Blend on high until smooth, then add 3/4 cups olive oil in a slow, steady stream with the blender running. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and set aside.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Fill another large container with half ice, half cold water, and set aside. Add the haricots verts to the boiling water, and cook until just tender, 35 to 40 seconds. Remove from the water, and immediately plunge into the ice water to cool. Next, blanch the carrots until just tender, about 1 1/2 minutes; chill in ice water until cold.
• When the vegetables are cold, remove from the ice water and pat dry. Place into a large bowl, and toss with the halved tomatoes, olives, onion, and chervil; set aside.
• Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat until very hot. Remove tuna steaks from marinade, and wipe off excess marinade. Season the tuna to taste with salt and pepper, then sear in hot skillet to desired doneness, about 1 minute per side for rare.
• To assemble, toss the vegetable salad with enough dressing to lightly coat. Divide the salad among 4 plates, and place a seared tuna steak on top of each. Drizzle with additional dressing to serve.

Steps:

• Prepare gas grill for cooking over direct high heat.
• While grill heats, cut peppers lengthwise into quarters, discarding stems and seeds. Trim ends so that quarters lie flat.
• Sprinkle tuna all over with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Cook tuna and peppers on lightly oiled grill rack, turning over once, until tuna is pink only in center and peppers are just tender, 4 to 6 minutes total (peppers may take longer than tuna). Transfer tuna and peppers as cooked to a serving plate.
• While tuna cooks, whisk together lemon juice, mustard, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl, then add oil in a slow stream, whisking until emulsified. Whisk in capers and parsley.
• Serve tuna topped with peppers and caper vinaigrette.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler or an outdoor grill.
• In a mixing bowl, blend the salt, pepper, ginger, thyme, soy sauce, lemon juice and olive oil. Brush the mixture all over the tuna. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand about an hour or until ready to broil.
• Arrange the steaks on a rack and place under the broiler or over the grill about 4 inches from the source of heat. Broil about 3 minutes. If using the oven, leave the door partly open. Turn the steaks, continue broiling, leaving the door partly open, for another 3 minutes. The center should remain pink.
• Serve with tomato and herb vinaigrette on the side.

Steps:

• Season tuna, refrigerate at least 20 minutes.
• Whisk together 1 tsp of the oil with the olives, parsley, vinegar, lemon juice, and garlic.
• Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add the tuna and cook about 1 to 2 minutes on each side, or until desired doneness (tuna is best rare). Remove the tuna from the skillet and cut into thin slices. Arrange on four small plates and top each serving with 1/4 of the olive mixture.
