Recipe: Chargrilled Tuna





A lovely light dish, extremely healthy and filling at the same time - Chargrilled Tuna is one of Simon's favourites and he's matched his recipe to a lovely Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz and Malbec blend, the Flagstone Longitude Cabernet Sauvignon-Shiraz-Malbec 2010.  Full of dark berry fruit - a lovely match! South African wine is growing increasingly popular in the UK market and Bruce Jack's lovely blend is a perfect example as to why! 
 
Ingredients:

2 tuna steaks (8oz/225g each)
 
Dressing:
2 heaped tablespoons of chopped coriander
1 heaped tablespoon of capers
Juice of half a lemon and its zest
One garlic clove, finely chopped
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Method:

Blitz all of the dressing ingredients together apart from the capers and set to one side, adding the capers whole.
 
Heat grill, griddle or frying pan with a dash of olive oil. Place tuna in pan once the oil is nice and hot. Cook on each side for 3 minutes. Serve with the dressing.
 
Bon Appetit!

Recipe: Chargrilled Breast of Chicken with Salsa Verde

A simple chicken dish perfect for midweek.  Chicken cooked in this way goes fantastically with delicate, fresh white wines.  Our pick in this instance is the Altozano Verdejo-Sauvignon de Castilla - A blend of Verdejo and Sauvignon Blanc- extremely quaffable. While we have recommended this to go with a chicken dish it also works well with pasta with very light olive oil and fish based sauces like spaghetti 'alla marinara' or 'alle vongole'.
