What a cooking priest? Don’t let those vestments fool you, Msgr. could easily trade them in for a chefs coat, he knows his way around the kitchen! As I, he shares the belief that food is the common denominator and when breaking bread and we sit around the table there is bond of spiritual love like non other.

Tuna Travels from Montauk to JBJ Soul Kitchen

Knowing where food is sourced is just as important as the final prepraed dish. One selection on the main course for my guest chef menu at JBJ Soul Kitchen was the 'fresh catch' of the day, which I prepared with local sourced tuna, the pride fish from my hometown on Long Island. As a chef it's always a Team effort, working with farmers and producers for the best of the season. For the fish course, master fisherman Doug Oakland of Oakland’s Restaurant in Hampton Bays stepped up. I was ensured there would be a tuna in "under 12." Note, the best tuna is caught 30-70 miles offshore Montauk LI. No easy task, but with Doug at the reel it was a guarantee. With a perfect 175-pound yellowfin tuna dressed for my guest chef farm & sea to-table menu, we traveled from Eastern Long Island to our friends and neighbors at Soul Kitchen in Red Bank, NJ. Thank you Doug, mission accomplished! With the support of Doug and many others we were able to serve a healthy menu of love for our neighbors to the west. PS. I kept the recipe simple, and let the flavor of your tuna shine!

If there was ever a fish perfect for the fire, tuna fits the grill. Anyone who has tried to turn a delicate fish fillet only to find it stuck to the grate will appreciate the firm flesh of a tuna steak. Fresh tuna is ideal for bold flavors, but you don’t want to overpower the taste of the tuna. Start with fresh fish that has springy flesh and no fishy odor. Use caution, overcooking it will quickly make it dry. Sardinia is an island off the coast of Italy where fishing is a way of life. When the tuna is running, most families have tuna for dinner many nights in a row. The tuna in this recipe is quickly grilled for only a few minutes on each side, but you can cook it to your liking. 

Tuna Sardinian Style

Makes 4 servings  
chefgeorgehirsch.com | From Adventures in Grilling cookbook

Four 5 ounce tuna steaks

4 Tablespoons olive oil

2 Tablespoons chopped fresh basil

Fresh ground black pepper

Pre heat grill to high. 

Brush the tuna with 2 Tablespoons of olive oil, place it on a hot grill, and sear for two minutes on each side. Remove the tuna, set it aside, and keep it warm. Use caution, overcooking it will quickly make it dry. Top with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and caponata. Serve with Mousseline Potatoes.

A caponata is a staple in southern Italy. My version uses all farm fresh veggies in place of canned tomatoes. Make today and refrigerate at least a couple of days to bring out all the flavor of the fresh vegetables.
