Sicilian-Style Tuna Steaks (Tonno alla Ghiotta) image

Steps:

1. In a medium skillet over moderately high heat, warm the oil. Season the tuna with salt and pepper and sauté, turning once, until golden on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes total. Remove the tuna and set aside. Do not clean the pan.
2. In the same pan over low heat, sauté the onion, stirring frequently, until just tender, about 1 minute. Add the garlic, capers, olives, raisins, and tomatoes, and continue cooking, stirring, until heated through, about 2 minutes. If the tomatoes don't release much juice, add the fish stock or water to give the sauce some body.
3. Return the tuna to the pan and cover it with a tight-fitting lid. Cook over moderate heat until the tuna reaches the desired doneness, 2 to 3 minutes for medium.
4. Add the parsley and basil and stir to incorporate, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve the fish with the sauce spooned over the top; garnish with pine nuts.

Ingredients

6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 (5- to 6-ounce) tuna steaks
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 large onion, sliced (about 1 cup)
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons salted capers, soaked in water for 10 minutes and drained
3 tablespoons minced pitted green olives
1/4 cup raisins
5 plum tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and chopped
1 cup fish stock or water, as needed
2 tablespoons fresh flat-leaf parsley, coarsely chopped
4 to 5 fresh basil leaves, torn
1/3 cup pine nuts, toasted

Sicilian Tuna image

Steps:

Marinate tuna:
Combine oil, lemon juice, anchovies, garlic, oregano, and tuna in a large sealable bag and seal bag, pressing out excess air. Let stand at room temperature, turning occasionally, 30 minutes.
Grill tuna:
Remove tuna from marinade and shake off any excess. Lightly oil grill pan and heat over medium-high heat until smoking. Grill tuna, turning once, until pale pink in center, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a platter and cover with foil to keep warm.
Meanwhile, make sauce:
Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Add diced celery and cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, olives, and capers and cook until sauce is slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in basil, lemon juice, and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper and remove from heat. Spoon sauce over tuna and sprinkle with celery leaves.

Ingredients

For tuna:
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3 anchovy fillets, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
2 teaspoons finely chopped oregano
4 (6-ounces) tuna steaks, preferably albacore (1 inch thick; see cooks' note, below)
For sauce:
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 celery ribs, cut into 1/4-inch dice, plus 3 tablespoons celery leaves, coarsely chopped
2 ripe tomatoes, cut into 1/4-inch dice
1/4 cup Kalamata or other brine-cured black olives, pitted and coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons small capers, drained and chopped
3 tablespoons finely chopped basil
1 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Equipment: a 2-burner grill pan

Season the tuna steaks, brush with oil, then pat the mustard powder over both sides. Once the couscous is ready, add the parsley and capers to the onions, stir well, then mix into the couscous with a fork. Heat a griddle pan and sear the tuna for 1 min on each side until medium-rare. Serve the tuna with the couscous and lemon wedges on the side.

Heat three level tablespoons of olive oil in a medium-sized pot (that will take a lid) over medium heat. Add the sliced strips of red bell pepper, stir well to coat them with the olive oil and turn the heat down to low-medium. Cover the pot with its lid. The peppers need to soften, but not brown at all. So, keep them slowly cooking for 10 minutes with some regular stirring.
Melt the butter in a medium-size pot over a low heat and add the sliced garlic and sea salt. Stir the pot and let the garlic release its flavor into the butter – about 3 minutes over a stirred low heat. The garlic must not brown.
Put the skillet with the seared, partly cooked tuna steaks onto a medium heat and pour the sauce over them. Lift the steaks a little so that they sit in the surrounding sauce as it heats. As soon as the sauce starts to bubble, turn the heat to low and let the steaks finish their cooking for about six minutes at a very gentle simmer in the sauce. They’ll then be ready to serve – straight from the skillet, with the emerald green spinach presented alongside.
