Tuna Al Tarocco Recipes

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add tomatoes, green onions, garlic, cumin, and oregano; saute until tomatoes are very soft, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low. Add drained tuna; gently break into bite-sized pieces and mix in. Season with red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Cover and cook until tuna is warmed through, 2 to 3 minutes more.
• Stack 6 tortillas on a microwave-safe plate and cover with a damp paper towel. Heat in the microwave until pliable, 15 to 20 seconds. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Spoon tuna mixture over warm tortillas.

Steps:

• First make the vinaigrette. In a small pan over high heat, bring the blood-orange juice to a boil, and reduce by half. Remove from the heat, and allow to cool.
• In a small mixing bowl, combine the reduced orange juice, mustard, vinegar and salt to taste. Whisk to blend, and slowly whisk in 1/2 cup of the olive oil until emulsified. Set aside. Grate and reserve the zest from the orange. Cut any remaining peel and pith from the orange. Over a bowl, cut the orange into segments, reserving the segments and juices released into the bowl.
• In a 10-to-12-inch saute pan over high heat, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil, and add the scallions. Saute until the scallions are softened, 30 to 45 seconds. Add the mushrooms, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Saute until the mushrooms are softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the radicchio, orange segments and any juice. Toss to wilt, 30 to 45 seconds. Transfer to a platter, and keep warm.

Transfer to the serving platter, laying the steaks on top of the radicchio mixture. Sprinkle the blood orange vinaigrette over the steaks, and top with the orange zest mixture. Serve immediately.
