Summer Grilling at its Best

There's nothing like fresh vegetables and herbs in the summer.  My favorite combination is tomatoes and basil.  Here's a great recipe for tuna using both.

Grilled Tuna with Tomato-Basil Vinaigrette

2 tablespoons olive oil
Juice of 1 lime
Salt and pepper to taste
2 yellowfin tuna steaks

Tomato-Basil Vinaigrette
1 ripe tomato, cored, seeded and chopped
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil (do not use dried)
Salt and pepper to taste

Combine oil, lime juice, salt and pepper in a plastic ziploc bag.  Add tuna and marinate for at least 10 minutes.  Grill until medium rare (do not overcook).

Combine ingredients for vinaigrette.  Spoon over the tuna.
