1. Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Mix 2 tbsp oil with the balsamic and season. Put the tomatoes on a baking tray and pour the balsamic mixture over. Roast for 15 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, heat a griddle pan (chargrill) to hot. Season and lightly oil the tuna steaks then cook for 2 minutes each side. Serve with the tomatoes, salad leaves and the balsamic oil drizzled over.

Recipe Extra

Swap roasted tomatoes for an even quicker tomato salsa, chop a couple of ripe tomatoes and a red onion into small dice then mix with a little lime juice and coriander.

  A simple recipe and a very nice dish. The balsamic tomatoes complimented the tuna perfectly. And healthy too!

  Lovely. So simple and tasty. I cooked steaks for 6 mins each side as they were quite thick and coated them in sesame seeds before griddling - yum! Served with mash and green beans. I will reduce balsamic mix next time as I had more than enough.
