Sink your teeth into some dry-cured ham— prosciutto. But that's not all— this prosciutto is just the outer layer of some delicious tuna with queso fresco and basil stuffing, topped with Poe-Co Loco Seasoning and chile corn purée.
Brian Poe of Poe's Kitchen at the Rattlesnake, shows you this unique and greatly satisfying recipe. An Anaheim and jalapeño chile-flavored corn purée serves as the bed for tuna wrapped with prosciutto that's been seasoned with the chef's special mix of spices, then seared just 30 seconds per side, keeping the fresh tuna's fabulous flavor. The recipe will serve 6-8 as an appetizer or first course and we guarantee they're gonna fly off the plate.
