Grilled Tuna With Green Olive Tapenade


Grilled Tuna With Green Olive Tapenade
October, 2002

Serves 4 / Tuna is a great fish for grilling—its meaty texture holds up well on the grill, and it looks beautiful under a spoonful of green olive tapenade.

4 tuna steaks, 6 ounces each
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 cloves garlic
1/4 cup green olives
2 teaspoons capers, drained
Juice of two lemons
4 lemon wedges, for serving

1. Preheat grill to medium-high. Brush tuna steaks with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
2. In a food processor, coarsely blend garlic, green olives, capers, lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons olive oil, keeping the consistency slightly chunky. Season to taste with salt and pepper and set aside.
3. Grill the fish for 3-4 minutes each side. Remove and spoon tapenade over the fish. Serve immediately and garnish with lemon wedges.
