Ingredients

  • 1 pound dried white beans, picked over, and soaked overnight
  • 1 small onion, quartered
  • 1 carrot, coarsely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, smashed
  • 1 bay leaf
  • Olive oil
  • 4 to 5 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, divided
  • 1 red onion, peeled, halved, and thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chopped thyme leaves
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 (8-ounce) tuna steaks
  • 1 head radicchio, halved
  • Coarsely chopped fresh parsley leaves

Directions

Drain the beans, then with cold water in a large pot and add the onion, carrot, garlic and bay leaf and cook until the beans are soft, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Drain the beans and pick out the onion, carrot, garlic and bay leaf. Place the beans in a bowl and toss with a couple tablespoons each of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Fold in the red onion and thyme, and season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Preheat grill to high. Brush tuna and radicchio with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the tuna for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until slightly charred and cooked to medium-rare doneness. Grill the radicchio, cut-side down, until slightly charred and wilted. Remove the tuna and radicchio from the grill. Dice tuna into bite-size pieces, and drizzle with balsamic vinegar. Slice radicchio into 1/4-inch thick slices. Fold tuna and radicchio into the white beans. Transfer the beans to a platter and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve warm or at room temperature.

    Quite a flavorful dish & very simple to prepare. Like the others, I, too ,used canned white beans. Love the smokey taste of... the grilled radicchio & the vinegar makes the onions burst. A keeper!Read more

    SIMPLE & DELICIOUS

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    The white bean salad was a great compliment to the grilled tuna, especially with the red onions. The balsamic vinegar... pickled the onions just right. I took the short cut and used canned white beans and rinsed out the liquid. This will go great with my diet. Just be sure not to overcook the tuna. Thanks, Bobby!! Another winning recipe.Read more

    Guiltless indulgence

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    My husband I recently started watching our carbs, salt and cholesterol. we ran this recipe past his cardiologist and he said... go for it. It was simple, incredibly flavorful..sinmply put, it was sinfully scrumptious and satisfying. We even tried it with canned beans and rinsed them to lower the salt and it was every bit as good and saved the day when we forgot to soak the dry beans over night but were already set to prepare this meal that night. Thanks bobby flay for another great meal!Read more
