GRILLED TUNA WITH HERBS AND OLIVES



Grilled Tuna With Herbs and Olives image

Here, grilled tuna is smothered with a mixture of flavorful herbs, made more potent by the addition of chopped olives and a little raw garlic. A mix of parsley, basil, chives, chervil and marjoram, for example, would be splendid, as would one of cilantro, mint and basil. (I would rule out only thyme, tarragon and rosemary, unless you use them in minuscule quantities.) If you don't have a grill, many readers have baked it at 425 and been happy with the results.

2 tsp chopped fresh thyme
2 tsp dried tarragon

1/3 c mayonnaise
4 tuna steaks, each about 1-inch thick (7 ounces each)

Tips:

  • Grill the tuna steaks over high heat: This will help to sear the outside of the steaks and keep them from overcooking.
