Tuna with Tomato Sauce

Contributed by: Melinda

This is an ultra-simple dish and very quick to prepare. I like to pick up Trader Joe's frozen Yellowfin or Ahi and thaw in the fridge. It is always very fresh tasting. The flavor of the tuna is remarkable with the capers and tomatoes. You could easily dice fresh tomatoes for this dish or use cherry tomatoes.

Tuna Steaks - 1 1/4 lbs. total
1 15oz. can Muir Glen Organic diced tomatoes
1 Tbl capers
Kosher Salt
Black Pepper
Olive Oil
Coarsly chopped Kalamata olives (Optional)
Fresh herb such as oregano, thyme, etc. (Optional)

Pat tuna dry with paper towels and place on a platter
Sprinkle with salt and pepper
Heat a cast-iron skillet over med-high heat - when hot, add olive oil
Place tuna into pan and sear on both sides
Add capers to skillet surrounding the tuna and allow about 30 seconds to 1 minute to cook
Pour tomatoes over the tuna - Add olives and fresh herb and cover
Reduce heat to medium and allow tuna to cook in sauce until desired doneness

Serves 2 with a side salad or 4 with 2 side dishes.
