This tuna salad is not what you’d expect: Whole seared tuna steaks are perfectly seasoned and placed on a bed of greens with fresh-sliced bell peppers, tomatoes and a helping of smooth and rich Sargento® Shredded Mozzarella - Traditional Cut for optimal cheesy flavor.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup light vinaigrette or Italian salad dressing
- 1 tsp. dried tarragon
- 4 (6 oz. each) fresh tuna steaks, cut 1/2 -inch to 3/4-inch thick
- 8 cups (8 oz.) salad greens
- 1 cup tomatoes (teardrop, grape or cherry)
- 1/2 cup yellow bell pepper strips
- 1-3/4 cups (7 oz.) Sargento® Shredded Mozzarella - Traditional Cut or Sargento® Shredded 6 Cheese Italian, divided
- Pepper
Directions
- Combine salad dressing and tarragon. Spoon 2 tablespoons dressing over tuna steaks. Grill over medium-high coals 2 minutes per side, or until tuna is seared on the outside, but still very pink in center (do not overcook or tuna will be tough).
- Combine salad greens, tomatoes, bell pepper strips and 1 cup cheese in large bowl. Add remaining dressing mixture; toss well. Transfer to serving plates; top with tuna and sprinkle with remaining cheese. Serve with pepper.
