• Meanwhile peel and thinly slice the shallots. Turn the steaks and brown the other side, about 1 to 2 minutes longer. Strip the herb leaves from the stems.
• Test the steaks in the center with a small knife, cooking them to rare or medium done depending on your taste. Transfer them to a plate, cover and keep them warm. Chop the herbs.
• Add the shallots to the pan and saute, stirring, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the red wine and boil rapidly until reduced by about half. Off the heat, whisk in the remaining cubes of butter until it softens and thickens the sauce slightly. Stir in the chopped herbs and taste for seasoning. Transfer the steaks to 4 warmed plates and spoon over the sauce.

MARINATED TUNA STEAKS WITH ANCHO CHILE RED WINE SAUCE AND SPINACH-TOMATILLO RICE CAKE

Steps:

• Whisk together ancho puree, garlic, fennel, allspice, orange juice, honey, olive oil, and oregano in a medium-baking dish. Add the tuna and turn to coat. Refrigerate for 20 minutes, covered.
• Heat grill pan over high heat. Remove tuna from marinade and season with salt and pepper to taste on both sides. Sear on 1 side until golden brown, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Turn over and cook for 1 minute for medium-rare doneness.
• Place two Spinach-Tomatillo Rice Cakes onto a plate. Prop a tuna steak on top of the cakes at an angle. Drizzle the plate with the Ancho Chile Red Wine Sauce.
• Place water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Heat olive oil in a medium high-sided saute pan over medium heat. Add the rice and stir to coat. Add 2 cups of the hot water and stir until evaporated. Repeat with the remaining water until the rice is al dente. Stir in the cheese and butter until combined. Stir in the spinach and tomatillo sauce, season with salt and pepper. Spread the mixture evenly out onto a sheet pan, cover and place in the refrigerator until firm, about 1 hour.

Remove to a plate lined with paper towels.
