Ingredients
- 4 tuna steaks
- 1/4 cup olive tapenade
- 1 teaspoon crushed garlic (recommended: Christopher Ranch)
- 1 tablespoon capers, drained
- 1/2 cups Italian dressing (recommended: Newman's Own)
- 4 cups mixed salad greens (recommended: Fresh Express)
- 2 hard-boiled eggs, quartered
- 1 cup frozen French cut green beans, thawed
- 2 tomatoes, quartered
- 1 (15-ounce) can sliced potatoes
Directions
Cut a pocket into the side of the tuna steaks; set aside.
In a bowl, combine olive tapenade, garlic, and capers. Stuff tuna steaks with olive mixture and secure opening with toothpicks. Place stuffed tuna steaks in a large resealable plastic bag with the salad dressing. Squeeze out air and seal bag. Place in second bag to prevent any leaking. Marinate in refrigerator 1 to 3 hours.
Remove tuna from marinade and let come to room temperature, about 20 minutes. Discard marinade.
Heat an oiled grill pan over medium-high heat. Place tuna in grill pan and cook 3 to 4 minutes per side or until done. Be careful not to cook past medium or tuna will dry out quickly. Remove from grill pan and set aside.
Place salad mix onto a large serving platter. Garnish with slices of boiled egg, green beans, tomato wedges, and sliced potatoes. Remove toothpicks from tuna and place on top of greens.

so good! i cooked my tuna all the way because I do not care for it to be rosy in the middle, and it was delicious.

I had to print this recipe twice because my first one wore out! Okay, so I cooked my own potatoes, beans and eggs. Big deal. This recipe is so deelish, that my husband and I feel like we are in a fine restaurant in NYC enjoying a special of the day!

I can't seriously rate this, because I've not tried it...However, when I see a recipe, I always read the reviews to see what people say...It seems to me the French people are being a little too harsh..The name of the show is Semi-Homeade...meaning she's trying to give the average home cook a way to give their famaly something different, not perfect to the original recipe......but something new to their palate....I cook for people everyday, and for financial reasons, you can't always be true.
