Grilled Tuna with Chiles, Corn and Fresh Greens

Grilled Tuna with Chiles, Corn and Fresh Greens

12 oz tuna steak that is sashimi grade – grilled medium rare
1 cup cooked corn – preferred that it is roasted*
1 teaspoon natural sugar
½ teaspoon chili oil
½ teaspoon dried red chili peppers
2 tablespoon seasoned rise vinegar
Just a little fresh lemon juice
Olive Oil
Fresh salad greens and herbs
Handmade flour tortillas

Rub tuna with olive oil sea salt and a little pepper. Grill tuna until medium rare (use grill pan or sear it in a skillet) remove from hot pan and set aside – into hot pan add sugar, corn, chili oil, chili peppers, rice vinegar and a tad of lemon juice and cook on high for maybe one minute – you want to deglaze the pan and heat the contents.

Slice tuna into bowl and add the corn etc from the pan. Toss well and taste for salt and maybe the need of some olive oil.

Place on greens and serve

OR

I like to wrap it all up in a hot flour tortilla as a wrap.

A little sweet, a little spicy, a lot yummy

Serves Two

** a way to cheat on the roasted corn is to place corn cut from cob or already cooked onto nonstick pan and place under hot broiler until it looks roasted
