    Tuna Salad Nicoise (broil) -- e-w
    Serves: 4

    1 lb. fresh � or � frozen tuna steaks, 1-inch thick
    3 T. sherry vinegar
    2 T. finely chopped shallots
    1 T. Dijon-style mustard
    2 T. olive oil
    1 anchovy fillet, rinsed and mashed
    Black pepper
    8 oz. tiny new potatoes, quartered
    6 oz. green beans
    6 c. Bibb � or � Boston lettuce leaves
    3/4 c. thinly sliced radishes
    1/2 c. pitted nicoise olives � or � ripe olives, pitted

    Thaw fish if frozen. Rinse fish; pat dry. For Dressing: In a small mixing bowl combine vinegar and shallots. Whisk in mustard. Add oil in a thin, steady stream, whisking constantly. Stir in the anchovy. Season to taste with pepper. Remove 1 Tablespoon of the dressing for brushing fish; set aside remaining dressing until ready to serve.

    Preheat broiler. Brush the 1 Tablespoon of dressing over both sides of the fish. Place fish on the greased unheated rack of a broiler pan. Broil about 4-in. from heat for 8 to 12 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork; gently turning once halfway through broiling. Cut fish into slices.

    Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan cook potatoes in boiling water for 7 minutes. Add green beans; cook for 2 minutes more or until the potatoes are tender. Drain and cool slightly.

    To Serve: Arrange fish, potatoes, green beans, lettuce leaves, radishes, and olives on 4 dinner plates. Serve with remaining dressing.
