I would suggest adding the lemon juice into the pesto. For some reason the acid felt like it was missing when it was added after the tuna was seared. The dish was good but I wouldn't say fantastic. I don't think this is a repeat in our collection.

I found this recipe after my brother in law, went fishing & brought home freshly caught tuna. That morning my sister and I happened to make several batches of Giada's pesto (a staple in our homes every summer and we tried this recipe. Rave reviews all around...it is delicious, and I highly recommend this recipe. Yum!
PS...make extra pesto...its very versatile ie: for appetizers, pasta salads, mix with roasted chicken for sandwiches, make a pesto pizza, add to spaghetti sauces..AND, it freezes well too.

This is the best homemade pesto recipe I have ever made! I made several batches, put into 1/2 pint containers with some EVOO on top and froze them so that I can always have pesto on-hand. It is the perfect way to use that extra basil in your garden at the end of the summer! Thanks, Giada! You have the freshest ideas!

I did not need that much pesto, so I "eyeballed" a smaller version and it was very tasty.

This is probably my favorite way to eat ahi tuna. I have made this several times. Goes perfectly with a glass of white wine!

This is a wonderful recipe! My 12yr old son made the pesto from the basil he grew on our patio and served it with grilled chicken and spaghetti. It was very simple and tasted very fresh. We will definitely be making this a favorite recipe.
Thanks Giada
