INSTRUCTIONS
Heat a griddle over medium-high heat for 5 minutes. Crush peppercorns with
the back of a heavy skillet or grind coarsely with a peppermill. Mix pepper
with salt and pat all over tuna loin to form a crust on all sides. Sear on
all sides, about 5 minutes in all. Remove and cool completely. Tuna should
be nicely seared on the outside and rare on the inside. In workbowl of a
food processor combine green peppercorns, vinegar and mustard. Process to a
smooth paste. With motor still running, add oil in a slow, steady stream
and process just until oil is absorbed and vinaigrette thickens. Taste and
season. Toss greens with 2 tablespoons of dressing and mound on a chilled
dinner plate. Slice tuna into 1/2-inch thick slices and top salad. Drizzle
with remaining dressing and sprinkle with croutons.
