Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 pound Ahi Tuna
  • 2 red peppers, roasted
  • 1/4 pound French green beans, blanched

  • 1/8 pound Niçoise olives, pitted
  • 1 teaspoon cracked black pepper

Rub peppers with olive oil and roast over open flame. Place in a covered container and let sit for 10 minutes.

Remove skin from tuna under cold water, then cut in 1" by 4" blocks. Season tuna with salt and black pepper, then sear in a hot pan with truffle oil. Let cool.
