Steps:
- Preheat grill to 400 degrees F.
- Wash and pat dry the tuna steaks. Season with salt and pepper and brush both sides with olive oil. Place tuna on hot grill and sear each side for 2 minutes for rare. If you prefer well done, cook the tuna an additional 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from skillet and let it rest.
- Into the bowl of a food processor, add the garlic, basil leaves, pine nuts, salt, and pepper. Pulse until finely chopped. With the blender still running, slowly pour 1/2 cup of olive oil. Check for a thick, yet smooth consistency, adding more oil if necessary. Transfer to a bowl and stir in 1/2 cup Parmesan.
- Slice the tuna across the grain and on a bias into 1/2-inch thick slices. Place the slices on a serving plate and drizzle with lemon juice. Sauce tuna with pesto.
PESTO TUNA
I had tuna, but none of the usual ingredients I mix in. I found pesto in the back of the fridge. It's unusual I know, but we really liked the flavour combination, even my husband who hates trying new things :-) Note: the cook time is for refrigeration.

Steps:
- Make sure the tuna is as well drained as possible, I squeeze mine in a sieve.
- Mix with pesto and pepper to taste.
- If you want a more"spreadable" consistency, mix in the mayonnaise.
- A little lemon juice adds some zing if you like a more tangy flavour.
- Refrigerate for at least 20minutes to allow flavours to meld.
- Serve either as a sandwich or on crackers.
