Steps:
- Place tuna in a bowl, cutting it into several pieces if necessary. Add olive oil, the garlic, thyme and lemon peel. Cover, and marinate 6 hours, refrigerated or at room temperature, or overnight in the refrigerator.
- Transfer contents of bowl to a saucepan, bring to a simmer, lower heat and cook 5 minutes. Shut off heat. Tuna will still be pink in middle. Let cool 30 minutes.
- Remove tuna, drain well, transfer to a bowl and mash coarsely with a fork. Fold capers, shallots, mustard and sherry vinegar into tuna. Whisk 2 tablespoons of the olive oil with chicken stock and grape seed oil. Fold into tuna. Season with salt and pepper. (Mixture should be fairly loose.)
- To serve at once, place mounds of tuna on each of 6 salad plates, scatter with more capers and serve with toast, as a first course. Otherwise, refrigerate tuna until 30 minutes before serving; then divide onto plates and serve.

TUNA OR SWORDFISH WITH ONION CONFIT
Steps:
- Put the olive oil in a 10- or 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, a healthy pinch of salt, some pepper, and the thyme. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture starts to sizzle, a minute or two. Adjust the heat so that you have to stir only every 5 minutes at most to keep the onions from browning. They will become progressively softer; do not allow them to brown. Figure at least 30 minutes total for the onions to cook.
- Core the tomatoes, then cut them in half horizontally. Squeeze and shake out the seeds, then cut the tomatoes into 1/2-inch dice. Preheat a grill to moderately hot.
- When the onions are very soft, almost a shapeless mass, season the fish and grill it, turning once, for a total of about 6 minutes for tuna, 8 to 10 minutes for swordfish; check for doneness by making a small cut in the center of the fish and peeking inside. (Tuna can be quite rare; swordfish is best cooked to medium, when its interior is still slightly pearly rather than completely opaque.) While the fish is grilling, stir the olives and tomatoes into the onions and raise the heat a bit; cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes liquefy and the mixture becomes juicy. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Serve the fish on a bed of the onion confit.
- Variations
- Chicken with Onion Confit: Serve the onions with grilled skinless, boneless chicken breasts.
- Omit the thyme and use a bay leaf instead, or finish the dish with a handful of chopped fresh basil, chervil, or parsley.
- Cook some finely chopped aromatic vegetables, like carrots, celery or fennel, and garlic, along with the onions.

- In a medium saucepan, combine the olive oil, thyme, bay leaf, fennel, carrot, coriander seeds, black and white peppercorns and half of the sliced onion. Add the tuna, submerging it in the oil. Attach a candy or deep-fry thermometer to the pan and warm the oil over moderate heat to 160°. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the tuna cool at room temperature until slightly warm, about 30 minutes. Remove the tuna from the oil, break it into 1-inch pieces and transfer to a large bowl. Strain the poaching oil; reserve 1/4 cup of the oil and discard the solids and remaining oil.
- Add the tomato slices and remaining onion to the bowl with the tuna. In a small bowl, whisk 1/2 cup of the reserved poaching oil with the sherry vinegar, oregano, lemon thyme, basil and mint. Pour the mixture over the tuna and tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper and toss gently.
