Direcciones
- Mix the mayonnaise, basil, garlic and asiago cheese together till combined.
- Season the tuna on both sides with the extra virgin olive oil, salt and pepper. Heat a heavy frying pan till almost smoking. Add in the tuna in a single layer and sear till lightly brown on one side. Turn over and sear the other side. The tuna should remain rare.
- Spread the cheese mix proportionately over each piece of tuna. Broil, 4 inches from the heat till the cheese bubbles. Sprinkle with the tomato and serve immediately.
- This recipe yields 4 servings.
- Comments: You can buy sashimi grade albacore tuna at Japanese grocery stores. Fujiya and Angel Seafoods both carry it. It is better to use a piece which is thickly cut. Albacore is the tuna which is used in canned tuna. Do not overcook it though, or possibly your beautiful piece of tuna will end up tasting like it came out of the can.
- The heavy carb count comes from the roasted garlic - 7.93 grams for the whole recipe. You can omit it, that will bring the carb count down to about 2 grams per serving.
- Description: "This is a playful take on the tuna heat, using fresh tuna."
