grilled tuna with provencal vegetables and easy aioli

recipe:

Nonstick vegetable oil spray

4 5-ounce albacore tuna steaks (from the U.S. or Canada; about 1 inch thick)

2 zucchini, quartered lengthwise

1 eggplant (about 1 pound), cut lengthwise into 3/4-inch-thick slices

4 tablespoons (about) olive oil

2 cups assorted cherry tomatoes, halved

2 teaspoons herbes de Provence*

1 garlic clove, minced

Easy Aioli (see recipe below) 

directions: 

Spray grill with nonstick spray. Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat).

Brush tuna steaks, zucchini, and eggplant with olive oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill vegetables until tender and lightly charred, turning occasionally, about 12 minutes. Remove from grill and cut into bite-size chunks. Place vegetables, tomatoes, herbes de Provence, and garlic in large bowl; toss to blend. Set aside. Grill tuna steaks to desired doneness, about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Place tuna on plates, top with vegetables, and serve with aioli. * A dried herb mixture; sold in the spice section of supermarkets and at specialty foods stores. If unavailable, a combination of dried thyme, basil, savory, and fennel seeds can be substituted.
