Recipe information

  • Yield

    4 servings

Ingredients

Nonstick vegetable oil spray
4 5-ounce albacore tuna steaks (from the U.S. or Canada; about 1 inch thick)
2 zucchini, quartered lengthwise
1 eggplant (about 1 pound), cut lengthwise into 3/4-inch-thick slices
4 tablespoons (about) olive oil
2 cups assorted cherry tomatoes, halved
2 teaspoons herbes de Provence*
1 garlic clove, minced
Easy Aioli

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Spray grill with nonstick spray. Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat).

    Step 2

    Brush tuna steaks, zucchini, and eggplant with olive oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill vegetables until tender and lightly charred, turning occasionally, about 12 minutes. Remove from grill and cut into bite-size chunks. Place vegetables, tomatoes, herbes de Provence, and garlic in large bowl; toss to blend. Set aside. Grill tuna steaks to desired doneness, about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Place tuna on plates, top with vegetables, and serve with aioli. * A dried herb mixture; sold in the spice section of supermarkets and at specialty foods stores. If unavailable, a combination of dried thyme, basil, savory, and fennel seeds can be substituted.
