Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 ears of corn, husks removed
2 red bell peppers
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, diced
2 tomatoes, peeled, seeded and coarsely chopped
1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes in oil, coarsely chopped, plus 1 teaspoon of their oil
1 tablespoon sherry or red wine vinegar
3 to 4 tablespoons chopped cilantro
Juice of 1 lime
4 tuna steaks (about 1 1/2 pounds) cut 3/4-inch thick
Salt and pepper

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.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my grilled tuna steaks came out a bit overcooked. The salsa was still good, though.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover tuna steaks. I also added some chopped avocado to the salsa, which gave it a nice creamy texture.
