Tuna Tomato And White Bean Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a medium saucepan; add enough water to cover by 2 inches and 1 tablespoon salt. Bring to a boil, then cook until fork-tender, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a plate. Return water to a boil; add green beans and cook until bright green and crisp-tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain.
• Mix together garlic and vinegar; let stand 5 minutes. Grate 1 or 2 tomatoes to yield 1/2 cup; add to vinegar mixture. Whisk in oil; season to taste. Cut remaining tomatoes into wedges, arrange on a platter, season, and drizzle with oil.
• Toss white beans with half of dressing. Toss green beans with 1 tablespoon dressing; arrange on platter with potatoes, tuna, white beans, and arugula. Season to taste, drizzle with remaining dressing, and serve.

Steps:

• Whisk olive oil, vinegar, mustard, dill weed, garlic, sugar, and salt together in a large bowl. Add tomatoes, kidney beans, tuna, quinoa, basil, and onion; gently stir with a large spoon to coat evenly. Spoon salad into serving bowls; top each with about 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• To make the steaks: Combine lemon zest, oil, salt, and pepper and marinate the steaks for 10 to 30 minutes (but no longer than 30 minutes or the fish will start to break down.)
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a hot but not smoking pan, sear on each side for 2 minutes. Transfer the steaks to an ovenproof dish and finish in the oven for 5 minutes.
• To make the salad: In a medium skillet, cook the shallots in 2 tablespoons of oil for 5 minutes. Add the beans, stock, rosemary, and pepper and gently cook for 7 to 8 minutes on low.
• Remove the pan from the heat and very gently fold the cherry tomatoes into the bean mixture, taking care not to break them.
• To serve, thinly slice the heirloom or plum tomato and place 4 slices on each plate. Mound the salad in the middle and sprinkle with the remaining oil.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, blend lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper.
• Gradually whisk in olive oil.
• Add the beans, tuna, tomatoes, onion and parsley.
• Cover and chill.

Steps:

• Flake tuna into a medium-size bowl; add next six ingredients; drizzle Dressing over all and toss gently to mix.
• Spoon onto lettuce leaves and top with chopped egg, if desired.
• Serves 4.

Steps:

• Put the tuna in a shallow dish, drizzle over the oil and lemon juice, scatter over the garlic and rosemary. Turn the tuna so it's well coated. Cover and put in the fridge for 30 minutes (you can leave it for longer if convenient).
• Tip the beans into a large bowl. Toss in the tomatoes, onion and rocket. Put the oil, lemon juice, mustard, honey and salt and pepper in a screw top jar. Seal and put aside.
• Heat a cast iron ridged grill pan or frying pan until very hot. Cook the tuna on a moderately high heat for 2 minutes each side - don't overcook or it will be dry.
• Shake the dressing. Pour over the salad. Mix. Serve the salad with the tuna on top.
