Seared Yellowfin Tuna Steak With Avocado Salsa Food

MEXICAN TUNA STEAK, SWEET RED PEPPERS & AVOCADO SALSA

Steps:

• Sprinkle tuna steaks with sea salt, black pepper and drizzle with olive oil on both sides. Set aside.
• Heat 3 tablespoons of coconut oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and peppers, cover with a lid and cook for 5 minutes, stirring a couple of times. Add paprika, cumin, chilli, garlic, vinegar, a good pinch of salt, and about two tablespoons of water. Mix through and cook for 5-7 minutes until softened and slightly browned. Remove to a plate, or use a different frying pan for tuna steaks.
• Grind the coriander seeds with a mortar and pestle or use coriander seed powder instead. Heat up a little oil and butter (or ghee) to sizzling hot in a frying pan. Add coriander seeds and the zest of one lime (about a teaspoon of zest). Stir through to infuse with the flavours. Add the tuna steaks and turn the heat down to medium. Drizzle with juice from half a lime and cook for 2 minutes on each side (more if you like it well done and less if it's super fresh and you like it rare). Use a spoon to bathe the steaks in the buttery, lime sauce they're cooking in.
• Combine avocado and fresh coriander and season with a little sea salt and the remaining lime juice, about one tablespoon.
• Assemble red peppers on the serving plates. Place tuna steaks and top with avocado salsa and more red peppers. Squeeze extra lime juice and drizzle with a little extra virgin olive oil just before serving.

SEARED TUNA STEAK

Steps:

• Smash up the chilli and the coriander seeds in a pestle and mortar.
• Peel and chop the garlic, pick and finely chop the herb leaves and add it all to the pestle and mortar with a drizzle of oil and lemon juice, to taste. Mix together, and season with sea salt and black pepper.
• Lay out your tuna steaks on a tray, season both sides and rub all over with the herb mixture.
• There are two nice ways to cook it: I prefer to cook it on a griddle pan or in a frying pan.
• Your pan should be very, very hot. Put in the tuna and what you want to do is sear it so that it toasts, fries and browns (about 45 to 60 seconds on each side).
• Once cooked, I like to rip the steaks in half and serve with salad and chips or boiled potatoes and a big wedge of lemon. It's quite sexy sometimes with some marinated sun-dried tomatoes, olives, basil... The possibilities are endless.

SEARED TUNA WITH MANGO SALSA

Steps:

• Saute the olive oil, onions, and ginger in a large saute pan over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, or until the onions are translucent. Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Add the mangos, reduce the heat to low and cook for 10 more minutes. Add the orange juice, brown sugar, salt, black pepper, and jalapeno; cook for 10 more minutes, until orange juice is reduced, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and add the mint. Serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled.
• Heat a saute pan over high heat for 5 minutes until very hot. Season the tuna liberally with salt and pepper. When the pan is very hot, add a drizzle of olive oil and then the tuna steaks. Sear for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until the outside is browned, but the inside is very rare.
• Serve the tuna on top of the mango salsa.

PAN-SEARED TUNA WITH AVOCADO, SOY, GINGER, AND LIME

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, combine the cilantro, jalapeno, ginger, garlic, lime juice, soy sauce, sugar, salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Stir the ingredients together until well incorporated.
• Place a skillet over medium-high heat and coat with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season the tuna generously with salt and pepper. Lay the tuna in the hot oil and sear for 1 minute on each side to form a slight crust. Pour 1/2 of the cilantro mixture into the pan to coat the fish. Serve the seared tuna with the sliced avocado and the remaining cilantro sauce drizzled over the whole plate.

GRILLED BLACKENED TUNA STEAK RECIPE WITH MANGO AVOCADO SALSA

Steps:

• To make the seasoning mix, whisk all ingredients together and store in an airtight container. The mix should keep well for at least three months.
• To make the mango avocado salsa, mix all ingredients in a medium bowl. Taste and adjust the seasonings if desired.
• To make the grilled blackened tuna steaks, heat a grill over high heat (or a grill pan on the stove over medium-high).
• Coat the tuna steaks with the blackening seasoning on all sides, then spray the top and bottom with cooking spray.
• Add the steaks to the hot grill and cook for 1-2 minutes per side, or until black grill marks have formed but the inside is still rare. Serve hot topped with mango avocado salsa.

SEARED SESAME TUNA & GRILLED AVOCADO-MANGO SALSA RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• AHI TUNA: Turn on grill and set to high. In a small basting bowl, mix olive and sesame oils. Liberally brush the oil mixture over the tuna steaks. Toss both black and white sesame seeds in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper to taste. Press the tuna steaks into the sesame seeds, covering all sides of the fish. Grill the tuna, searing the fish on all sides for 45 seconds to 2 minutes. The fish should have grill marks but still be medium rare in the center. Remove from the grill, season with additional salt and pepper to taste, slice and serve the tuna with grilled avocado-mango salsa and summer greens. SALSA: Turn on grill and set to high. Combine the tomato, onion, garlic, cilantro, jalapeno, juice of one lime, and vinegar. Score the cut sides of both the avocado and mango, then brush with a mixture of the canola oil and the reserved 1 tablespoon of lime juice. Grill the avocado and mango for 3 to 4 minutes, turning a quarter turn after 60-90 seconds and removing from heat once cross-hatch grill marks are in place. Discard the skin and chop the seared avocado and mango. Combine with the other vegetables. Season to taste with cumin, cayenne pepper, salt and freshly ground pepper. Refrigerate for 20 minutes, drain any excess liquid and serve.
