SPICY GRILLED TUNA WITH GARDEN SALSA
The rooftop of chef Rick Bayless's Chicago restaurant Frontera Grill is dedicated to growing tomatoes, hot peppers and herbs for fresh salsas. Multicolored heirloom tomatoes can be sweeter than other types, Bayless says, and they offer a hefty dose of infection-fighting vitamin C.

Steps:
- Roast garlic and jalapeños in a small, dry skillet over medium heat, turning occasionally, until soft (both will blacken in spots), 5 to 10 minutes for jalapeños, 15 minutes for garlic. Cool, then peel garlic. Puree garlic, jalapeños, lime juice and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a blender until smooth. Scoop 1/2 cup puree into a 13" x 9" glass baking dish. Place fish on puree, flipping once to coat both sides. Cover dish; refrigerate 10 to 20 minutes to marinate. Transfer remaining puree into another bowl for salsa. Mix in tomatoes. Rinse onion in a small strainer under cold water; drain. Add to tomato mixture. Stir in cilantro, mint and basil. Season with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Coat grill with cooking spray; heat to medium-high (about 375°F). Remove fish from marinade; place on grill. Cover grill and cook 3 minutes. Uncover, flip fish, cover again and cook until fish is done, about 2 minutes more for medium-rare. Transfer fish to plates; spoon salsa on top.
SPICY GRILLED TUNA WITH HEIRLOOM TOMATO SALSA
Homemade salsa is a wonderful way to highlight heirloom tomatoes. In the United States, people refer to this kind of salsa as "pico de gallo." I'm adding it along with some surprising herbs to a grilled fillet of tuna, creating a refreshing meal you'll want to enjoy again and again in the summer.

Steps:
- Marinade: Preheat a gas or charcoal grill to medium-high heat. Grill the chiles and unpeeled garlic cloves, turning occasionally, until they are soft and the skins have blackened in spots, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and cool.Peel the garlic; add to blender. Coarsely chop chiles, then add to blender along with the lime juice. Starting on low and ending on high speed, blend until the mixture is as smoothly puréed as possible.
- Place tuna steaks into a large baking dish and pour ⅔ of the purée on top (reserving the remainder for the salsa); spread it evenly over the fish with a spatula. Marinate in the refrigerator for up to 1 hour.
- While the fish is marinating, prepare the Heirloom Tomato Salsa: Finely chop the tomatoes, and combine with the remaining marinade in a medium bowl. Destem the fresh herbs, finely chop the leaves, and add to the tomatoes (about ¼ cup total). Finely dice the red onion, place in a fine-mesh strainer and rinse under cold running water. Shake off the excess water and add to the tomatoes. Stir to combine; add salt to taste, and stir again.
- Brush tuna steaks with a generous coating of oil. Season with salt, and place on the hot grill. Cover the grill and cook until medium-rare, 4-5 minutes for the first side. Turn and cook for another minute before removing from heat.
- Transfer the fish to a serving platter. Spoon the Heirloom Tomato Salsa over the fish and garnish with herb sprigs. Serve immediately with additional Heirloom Tomato Salsa on the side.

GRILLED TUNA STEAKS WITH ROASTED CORN AND TOMATO SALSA
Steps:
- First make the salsa. Preheat the broiler. While it is heating, prepare the corn. Holding each ear upright, cut off the kernels with a sharp knife. Heat a large heavy-based skillet or frying pan without any fat over high heat until almost smoking. Add the kernels and dry-roast until tender, smoky and dark, tossing continuously as they tend to stick, 4 to 5 minutes. Cook the peppers under the broiler, turning them until the skin chars and bursts, 7 to 10 minutes. Put them in a plastic bag and leave to sweat and cool so the skins loosen. Peel the peppers, discarding cores and seeds. Dice the flesh.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large frying pan. Add the onion and saute until soft but not brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Take the pan from the heat and stir in the roasted corn, chopped tomatoes, sun-dried tomatoes, diced peppers, vinegar and remaining oil. Heat, stirring, until hot. Take from the heat and keep warm.
- Rinse fish steaks and pat dry with paper towels. Brush with half the oil, season with salt and pepper and set on oiled grill pan or grill. Broil 3 to 4 minutes. Turn steaks over, brush with the remaining oil and grill until done to taste, 2 to 3 minutes longer.
- Meanwhile, stir the cilantro and lime juice into the salsa, taste and adjust seasoning. Make a bed of salsa on 4 warmed plates and place a tuna steak on top of each. Serve at once.
TUNA WITH TOMATO-BASIL SAUCE
Steps:
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, celery, parsley and garlic. Sauté until onion is tender but not brown, about 10 minutes. Add tomatoes and bay leaf. Cover and cook until sauce thickens, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Rewarm before continuing.) Discard bay leaf. Mix in torn basil. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper.
- Sprinkle tuna with salt and pepper. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in another heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add tuna and cook until golden and just opaque in center, about 3 minutes per side.
- Transfer tuna to platter. Spoon sauce over tuna. Garnish with basil sprigs.
