Preparation for the Tuna: Sprinkle with salt and pepper on a plate. Rub tuna steaks with olive oil, and coat with salt and pepper. Grill very hot for approximately 3-5 minutes on each side. Preparation for the Salad: Combine all of the ingredients, and toss mixture. For best results, refrigerate the salad for a couple of hours prior to serving. To serve: Slice the tuna steaks thin, and fan them out on a plate next to the salad. This dish can also be served over white rice.
