Time 30m

Yield 2 pieces, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups pineapple, diced
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
1 habanero pepper, stemmed, seeded, and finely chopped
2 tablespoons lime juice (about 1 lime)
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 lb yellowfin tuna fillet (sliced into 2-inch thick pieces, the thicker the better, mine were about 1.5-inch)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
ground pepper

Steps:

  • Slice the top of pineapple and the bottom off. Stand the pineapple on its side and with a sharp knife, slice sides of pineapple off. Cut the pineapple into small slices and then remove the core of each slice. (The core tends to be hard to eat, but I've had some pineapples were it was soft). Dice the remaining pineapple into small pieces.
  • Toss all of the ingredients into a bowl and chill for a couple of hours to let the flavors marinate.
  • Season each side of the fish with garlic powder, fresh ground pepper and sea salt.
  • Heat grill to medium high heat. Grill each side for about 4-5 minutes, until inside of the fish is a nice medium rare. Top with pineapple salsa! Enjoy!

I'm really disappointed with this recipe. I was expecting something amazing, but it was just average.

This recipe is a waste of time and ingredients. Don't bother.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but this dish was not good. I followed the recipe exactly, but the tuna was dry and the salsa was too spicy.

This recipe was a disaster! The tuna was tough and the salsa was bland. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

The tuna was a bit dry. I think I overcooked it.

I thought the pineapple salsa was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would probably use less sugar next time.

So delicious! I made this for my family and they loved it. The tuna was cooked perfectly and the salsa was so refreshing.

The flavors in this dish are incredible. The sweetness of the pineapple salsa pairs perfectly with the savory tuna. I highly recommend trying this recipe.

This dish was a hit at my dinner party! The pineapple salsa was the perfect complement to the grilled tuna. I'll definitely be making this again.
