Larry and I had a filling lunch today, so we wanted something light for dinner. I had fresh poached albacore tuna in the refrigerator, so I used that instead of making the tuna confit from the recipe.
Trader Joe’s is now carrying fresh albacore tuna, and at a great price. As long as they carry it, fresh poached tuna is going to be a regular item in our refrigerator.
This is a great recipe for two – I halved it, and is a fast and make-ahead meal.

This dinner was really good–and light. It was a good mix of flavors, and it went really well with the garlic bread (as does most everything).
