Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 lbs tuna steaks, cut into 1 1/4 inch cubes
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons lemon zest, finely grated
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
3 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons paprika
1 pinch cayenne pepper
4 garlic cloves, crushed and minced
1/2 cup flat leaf parsley, minced
1/2 cup cilantro, minced
1/3 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup olive oil

Steps:

  • If using wooden skewers, soak in water for 30 minutes so they don't burn.
  • Place the tuna in a shallow non-metallic dish. In a small bowl, combine the oil, cumin and lemon rind and pour over the tuna. Toss to coat, then cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, for the chermoula, place the coriander, cumin, paprika and cayenne pepper in a small frying pan and toast over medium heat for 30 seconds, or until fragrant. DO NOT BURN! Combine with the remaining chermoula ingredients and set aside.
  • Thread the tuna onto the skewers. Lightly oil your indoor grill or your barbeque and cook the skewers for 1 minute on each side for rare, or 2 minutes for medium.
  • Serve the skewers on a bed of couscous and drizzle with the chermoula.

I'm not sure about this recipe. The combination of flavors seems a bit strange.

These skewers were delicious! I made them for a potluck and they were a huge hit. I'll definitely be making them again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the skewers turned out dry. I think I might have overcooked them.

These skewers were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I'll probably reduce the amount of chili powder next time.

I'm not a huge fan of tuna, but these skewers were surprisingly good. The chermoula marinade really adds a lot of flavor.

These skewers were easy to make and turned out great. I used fresh tuna and it was so flavorful. I will definitely be making these again.

I love the combination of flavors in this dish. The sweetness of the honey and the spiciness of the chermoula complement each other perfectly.

These tuna skewers were a hit at my last party! The Moroccan spices and chermoula gave them so much flavor, and they were cooked to perfection. My guests raved about them, and I've already had several requests for the recipe.
