ADOBO TUNA WITH THAI BASIL CHIMICHURRI

Three parts Mexican, one part Argentine, one part Thai, one part French. The adobo is Mexican. So too the tomatoes. And the chillies in the adobo rub and the chimichurri originated in Mexico. Chimichurri is an Argentine concoction, often served with meat (what else in Argentina?). The green bean originates in France - which might explain why they're sometimes called French beans. Or maybe not. I made this version of chimichurri with Thai basil - for no other reason than there's a heap of it growing in the garden.
