4 tuna steaks
1/4 cup olive tapenade
1 teaspoon crushed garlic (recommended: Christopher Ranch)
1 tablespoon capers, drained
1/2 cups Italian dressing (recommended: Newman's Own)

  • In a bowl, combine olive tapenade, garlic, and capers. Stuff tuna steaks with olive mixture and secure opening with toothpicks. Place stuffed tuna steaks in a large resealable plastic bag with the salad dressing. Squeeze out air and seal bag. Place in second bag to prevent any leaking. Marinate in refrigerator 1 to 3 hours.
