GRILLED TUNA



Grilled Tuna image

Tuna is available most of the year, so fresh steaks should be easy to come by. Be choosy: a reddish color is acceptable, but flesh with dark spots or streaks should be avoided. As with all great ocean fish, the flesh tends to be dry. Marinate with oil, and avoid overcooking. The timing is critical, as tuna should be served medium rare. Use a kitchen timer.

HONEY MUSTARD GRILLED SALMON OR TUNA STEAKS



Honey Mustard Grilled Salmon or Tuna Steaks image

Salmon is my favorite "meat" and maybe my favorite food on earth. Since it's also good for you, I try to eat it at least a couple times a week. Grilled with this marinade is one of my favorite ways. If you have more fish and more than 3 people to feed, increase the amount of marinade. The preparation time is basically the marination time.

MAPLE-GLAZED TUNA WITH PEAR-POTATO SALAD



Maple-Glazed Tuna with Pear-Potato Salad image

Provided by Marcus Samuelsson

Categories     Fish     Mustard     Potato     Quick & Easy     Dinner     Pear     Seafood     Tuna     Healthy     Maple Syrup     Pescatarian     Dairy Free     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons maple syrup (see Tip)
Juice of 1 lime
1/4 cup olive oil
Four 6-ounce tuna fillets
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 cilantro sprigs
Pear-Potato Salad
Avoid imitation maple-flavored syrups, which are typically made without any real maple syrup.

Steps:

  • 1. Whisk together the mustard, maple syrup, lime juice, and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Set aside.
  • 2. Season the tuna on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add the tuna and cook for 30 seconds on each side.
  • 3. Remove from the pan and brush both sides of the tuna with the maple-mustard glaze. Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with the cilantro. Serve with the pear-potato salad.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality tuna steaks. Look for steaks that are firm and have a deep red color. Avoid steaks that are brown or have any signs of spoilage.
  • Marinate the tuna steaks for at least 30 minutes. This will help to tenderize the fish and infuse it with flavor. You can use a variety of marinades, but a simple mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, herbs, and spices is a good option.
  • Grill the tuna steaks over medium-high heat. This will help to sear the outside of the fish and keep it from drying out. Cook the steaks for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Let the tuna steaks rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help to redistribute the juices and prevent the fish from becoming dry.
  • Serve the tuna steaks with your favorite sides. Some good options include grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

Grilled bourbon mustard tuna is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout. The marinade tenderizes the fish and infuses it with flavor, while the grilling process creates a slightly charred exterior and a juicy, flaky interior. Serve the tuna steaks with your favorite sides for a complete meal that everyone will enjoy.
