Ingredients

  • 8 tablespoons white wine or chicken broth, divided
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil, divided
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano, divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper, divided
  • 1 tuna, swordfish or halibut steak (about 10 ounces), cut in half
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced sweet onion
  • 1 cup canned diced tomatoes, undrained
