Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons Champagne vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon tarragon
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 shallot, small, finely chopped
  • 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
  • 0.25 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 pound tuna steak
  • olive oil cooking spray
  • 1.5 pounds new potatoes, boiled or steamed until tender and cooled
  • 0.5 pound green beans, trimmed, boiled or steamed until tender and cooled
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 0.5 cup Niçoise olives, pitted
  • 0.5 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 hard boiled egg, peeled and cut into wedges

Instructions

In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, tarragon, mustard, shallot, salt and pepper. Slowly whisk in oil to make a vinaigrette.

Put tuna into a wide, shallow dish, drizzle all over with 2 tablespoons of the vinaigrette, cover and chill for 30 minutes. Reserve remaining vinaigrette.

Prepare a grill for medium heat cooking. Arrange tuna on the grill and cook 5 to 7 minutes on each side, or until tuna reaches desired doneness. Transfer to a plate. When cool enough to handle, flake into large pieces.

Arrange tuna, potatoes, green beans, tomatoes, olives, onion and egg on a large platter and serve with reserved vinaigrette on the side to spoon over the top.
