Grilled Tuna Steak with Fresh Herb and Peanut Salad

Serves 4

Method

Prepare a grill for medium-high heat cooking.

In a large bowl, whisk together lime juice, shallot, honey and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt. Set aside.

Sprinkle tuna with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt.

Grill tuna, flipping once, until browned on the outside but still deeply pink in the center, 3 to 4 minutes per side.

Transfer to a cutting board.

Add mint, basil, parsley and green onions to the bowl with lime dressing and toss.

Divide between 4 plates and sprinkle evenly with peanuts.

Thinly slice tuna and fan slices over salad.
