Categories     dinner, quick, main course

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 shallots, minced
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 pound fresh sorrel leaves
1 1/2 cups chicken stock (preferably homemade)
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tunafish steaks (about 1 1/2 to 2 pounds)
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Soften the shallots in butter in a heavy nonaluminum saucepan. Remove the stems from the sorrel, shred the leaves and add them to the pan. Cook until wilted.
  • Add the chicken stock and bring to boil. Season to taste with salt and pepper and allow to simmer gently until thickened. If the sauce gets too thick, cover and keep warm. It can be thinned with more chicken stock.
  • Meanwhile, preheat broiler or coals. Brush the tuna with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Broil about six inches from heat, turning once, until cooked to desired doneness (some people like their tuna rare; others prefer it well done. It should not be overcooked, however, or it will dry out).

This was my first time cooking tuna, and it turned out great! The sorrel sauce was a bit too tangy for my taste, but I still enjoyed the dish.

I'm not a big fan of sorrel, but I thought this dish was still very good. The tuna was cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful.

This dish was easy to make and very tasty. The sorrel sauce was a perfect complement to the grilled tuna.

The tuna was a bit dry, but the sauce was amazing. I would definitely make this again, but I would cook the tuna for a shorter amount of time.
