SEARED TUNA WITH WASABI-BUTTER SAUCE
I've had the seared tuna in nice restaurants, but this is better than all of them. One tablespoon of wasabi sounds like a lot of heat, but somehow this cooking method mellows it to almost nothing, just leaves the flavor. Really really great.

Steps:
- Combine the white wine vinegar, white wine and shallots in a small saucepan over medium heat. Simmer until the liquid is reduced to about 2 tablespoons. Strain out shallot and discard, return liquid to the pan.
- Stir the wasabi and soy sauce into the reduction in the pan. Over low heat, gradually whisk in butter one cube at a time allowing the mixture to emulsify. Be careful not to let the mixture boil. When all of the butter has been incorporated, stir in cilantro, and remove from heat. Pour into a small bowl, and set aside.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brush tuna steaks with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Place in the hot skillet, and sear for 3 to 5 minutes on each side. Be careful not to overcook, this fish should be served still a little pink in the center. Serve with sauce.

Steps:
- Season each piece of the tuna on both sides with the salt and pepper. Heat a grill to high and grill the tuna to the desired temperature.
- Serve the tuna with the asparagus and tomato sauce.
- Preheat the grill to medium.
- In a shallow baking dish, toss the asparagus with the oil to coat well. Add the salt, and pepper and toss.
- Place the asparagus on the grill in a single layer, and cook, turning, until marked and tender, about 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a platter, sprinkle with the lemon juice and drizzle with olive oil, to taste. Cover with aluminum foil and let sit for 5 minutes before serving.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a large, 14-inch, oven proof frying pan, combine all of the ingredients. Stir to blend then transfer to the oven and cook until the tomatoes begin to caramelize, about 30 minutes. Remove the skillet from the oven and stir well. Return to the oven and continue to cook until further caramelized and much of the liquid has evaporated, about 30 minutes longer. Serve immediately. (Alternately, cool slightly, and transfer to a blender, in batches if necessary, and process sauce until coarsely pureed. If the sauce seems too thick, thin with a bit of water or chicken broth.)
- To store, cool completely and refrigerate for up to 4 days in a nonreactive, airtight container.
- The sauce is great on pasta as well as pizza and even makes a great dipping sauce for hors d'oeuvres. If you prefer a less rustic sauce, puree completely as described above and strain.

- Season the tuna well: The tuna should be seasoned generously with salt and pepper before searing. This will help to develop a nice crust and enhance the flavor of the fish.
- Sear the tuna quickly: The tuna should be seared quickly over high heat to create a crust. This will help to keep the fish moist and tender.
- Cook the asparagus until tender-crisp: The asparagus should be cooked until it is tender-crisp, but still retains its bright green color.
- Reduce the red wine sauce: The red wine sauce should be reduced until it is slightly thickened and flavorful. This will help to concentrate the flavors of the wine and the shallots.
