List of Ingredients
One 8-ounce Ahi tuna steak
Salt and pepper to taste
1 Tbsp thyme
1 Tbsp rosemary
1 Tbsp parsley
1 ounce olive oil
1 1/2 baby artichokes
2 ounces butter
2 tsp capers
1 tsp lemon juice
2 ounces white wine Recipe
Season tuna with salt and pepper. Mix thyme, rosemary and parsley; press on tuna. Sear tuna in hot olive oil to form a light brown crust. Sear both sides, then finish cooking in a 500-degree oven for 4 to 7 minutes, until tuna is medium-rare.
Boil 1 quart salted water. Trim tips of artichokes and peel green layer away with a paring knife. Trim the bottom of the artichoke and cut in half. Clean the center; then blanch in salted water for 8 minutes, until tender.
To make the sauce: Melt 1 ounce butter in a saute pan. Add artichokes and capers. Add lemon juice and white wine. Finish with remaining butter.
