Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 fresh tuna steaks (about 8 ounces each)
1/2 cup finely diced celery
1/2 cup finely diced unpeeled Granny Smith apple
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1/2 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons finely slivered fresh basil leaves
4 good inner radicchio leaves, for serving cups

Steps:

  • 1. Heat the oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the tuna on the first side for 5 minutes, until lightly browned. Turn with a spatula and sear for 3 minutes longer or until cooked to your preference. Let the tuna rest for 5 minutes.
  • 2. Flake the tuna into 1x1/2-inch pieces and remove to a large bowl. Toss gently with the celery, apple, and scallions. Season with salt.
  • 3. Fold mayonnaise and basil into the tuna. Serve in radicchio cups with toasted peasant bread.
