Tuna Steaks with Garlic, Tomatoes, Capers, and Basi

A delicious alternative to my usual sesame seared ahi. Here, you make a quick topping of sautéd onions, tomatoes, garlic, and basil. It really pays to use the fresh stuff. As per suggestions on the epicurious web site, I also added white wine to the tomato mixture - it needed some additional liquid.

I also lightly marinated the tuna -- olive oil, rice vinegar, and a touch of tamari. Then seared the steaks for 1 - 2 minutes per side.

Very tasty!
