E-mail Print PDF
With flavors more Mediterranean than Mexican, this luscious recipe gives a crowd-pleasing twist to a Latin favorite and american. The goat cheese and spinach adds another special twist to this great taco main course. Ingredients
1/3 cup sour cream
2 ounces room-temperature goat cheese, crumbled
1 1/2 pounds (1/2-inch-thick) tuna steaks
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
4 cups baby spinach
4 large flour tortillas


Preparation
Combine sour cream and goat cheese in a bowl, stirring until blended. Set aside.
Sprinkle tuna steaks with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add tuna, and cook 2 minutes per side or until desired degree of doneness. Remove from skillet, and set aside.

Add tomatoes to skillet, and remove from heat. Cook tomatoes with residual heat for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add spinach; stir 1 minute or until slightly wilted. Remove from skillet.

Warm tortillas according to package directions. Slice tuna across the grain into 1/4-inch strips. Place strips on half of each tortilla. Top with spinach and tomatoes, and drizzle with goat cheese mixture. Fold tortilla, and serve immediately.
