Instructions
Slice the tuna in three thin paillards and marinate in the white wine, thyme, salt, and pepper. Lightly coat the radicchio wedges in salt, pepper and olive oil and grill until tender and slightly charred. Grill the pancetta until caramelized and crispy. Dice and set aside.
Place radicchio in a bowl with the pancetta, green olives, balsamic and a drizzle of olive oil and toss to coat. Grill the lemon wedge. Grill the paillards of tuna on one side only until cooked to medium rare.
Place radicchio salad in the center of the plate then add the tuna.
Garnish with a drizzle of the marinade and top with the grilled lemon.
Recommended wine: Merlot, Pinot Noir, Rose Wine
Tuna works really well with Merlot, Pinot Noir, and rosé Wine. Though fish is often paired with white wine, 'meatier' fish like tuna can absolutely go with red wine. A Rosé will also pair nicely, particularly if your tunan is prepared with ingredients better suited to a white wine. One wine you could try is La Jota Howell Mountain Merlot. It has 4.2 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 99 dollars.
