Fold in the red onion and thyme, and season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Grill the radicchio, cut-side down, until slightly charred and wilted. Remove the tuna and radicchio from the grill. Dice tuna into bite-size pieces, and drizzle with balsamic vinegar.

Steps:

• Over a gas flame, or under the broiler, roast peppers until the skin blisters and turns black, turning with tongs so they get evenly charred. Place the peppers in a bowl and cover with plastic for 15 to 20 minutes. Uncover, peel off the blackened skin, remove the core, and discard the seeds and ribs. Cut the peppers into thin strips and place in a clean bowl. Add the fresh herbs, shallots, garlic, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar and toss to combine.
