SEARED TUNA WITH WASABI-BUTTER SAUCE



Seared Tuna with Wasabi-Butter Sauce image

I've had the seared tuna in nice restaurants, but this is better than all of them. One tablespoon of wasabi sounds like a lot of heat, but somehow this cooking method mellows it to almost nothing, just leaves the flavor. Really really great.

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
10 fluid ounces white wine
¼ cup minced shallots

1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
1 cup chopped cilantro leaves
6 (6 ounce) fresh tuna steaks, 1 inch thick

Steps:

TEDDY'S MOMMY'S PAN SEARED AHI TUNA WITH WASABI SAUCE



Teddy's Mommy's Pan Seared Ahi Tuna With Wasabi Sauce image

This is a combination of two recipes I found while looking around on the internet. One didn't have the sesame seeds and one had the sauce I wanted. So I mixed ideas. If your tuna isn't bright red and it flakes apart you won't want to use it for this dish. I am finding if it isn't the right color and isn't fresh it does not taste right. I have purchased steaks in individual plastic packs that have been pre-frozen from the fish counter with good results. In the picture you see it with a vegetable it is Recipe #91301.

Categories     Tuna

Time 30m

Yield 2 steaks, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 ahi tuna steaks, 1/2 lb, 1-inch thick
1/2 cup white sesame seeds, toasted
1 tablespoon coriander seed, crushed (or 1/2 tablespoon coriander powder)
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon oil (vegetable, corn, canola, etc.)
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons wasabi paste
1/3 cup soy sauce (I use reduced sodium)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon dry sherry
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh gingerroot, minced
4 green onions, thinly sliced
1 cup daikon radish, grated use large holes on cheese grater

Steps:

  • Grate Daikon radish first, prep two plates with the radish laid out in a thin layer large enought to place a tuna steak on, leave out so it can get to room temperature (it isn't as good cold).
  • Mix together all sauce ingredients and set them aside.
  • Rinse tuna under cold water and pat dry.
  • Place sesame seeds, coriander, salt, and pepper into a bowl large enough to dip the steaks into. Mix the ingredients well.
  • Dip both sides of steaks into spice mix pressing down lightly to help the spices stick to the steaks.
  • Warm sesame, and regular oil in deep 10" (I use a non-stick) frypan over medium high heat(gas 8) until they're shimmery.
  • Carefully place both steaks into oil.
  • Keep an eye on the side of the steaks, when they start to slightly brown turn them over and brown the other side.
  • When done transfer steaks to cutting board and slice into 1/2" strips.
  • Then place on beds of daikon radish and pour half of sauce over each steak.
  • I usually serve this with a side of jasmine rice, or my recipe for wasabi mashed potatoes.

This is one of our favorite ways to have fresh ahi. I usually add a little more wasabi - but then we love that stuff, lol. I also cook it less time than recommended here because we like it that way and I usually add some sesame seeds as garnish.

TUNA SATES WITH WASABI MAYONNAISE



Tuna Sates with Wasabi Mayonnaise image

Categories     Quick & Easy     Backyard BBQ     Mayonnaise     Wasabi     Tuna     Summer     Grill     Grill/Barbecue     Soy Sauce     Gourmet

Yield Makes 10 satés

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup mayonnaise
4 teaspoons soy sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons wasabi paste (green horseradish paste), or to taste
a 12-ounce tuna steak, cut into twenty 1-inch cubes
ten 8-inch bamboo skewers, soaked in water 30 minutes

Steps:

  • In a bowl stir together mayonnaise, soy sauce, sugar, and lemon juice. Transfer 2/3 cup soy mayonnaise to a small bowl and stir in wasabi paste. Stir tuna into remaining 1/3 cup soy mayonnaise. Chill wasabi mayonnaise, covered, at least 1 hour and up to 24. Marinate tuna, covered and chilled, at least 1 hour and up to 24.
  • Prepare grill.
  • Thread 2 tuna cubes onto each skewer and grill on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Serve tuna satés with chilled wasabi mayonnaise.

Tips:

  • When searing tuna steaks, make sure the pan is very hot before adding the steaks. This will help to create a nice crust and prevent the steaks from sticking.
  • Sear the steaks for only a few minutes per side, or until they are cooked to your desired doneness. Overcooking will make the steaks tough and dry.
  • Allow the steaks to rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help to redistribute the juices and keep the steaks moist.
  • The wasabi green onion mayonnaise is a great complement to the seared tuna steaks. It is creamy, flavorful, and has a bit of a kick.
  • If you don't have wasabi powder, you can use prepared wasabi paste. Just be sure to use it sparingly, as it can be quite spicy.
  • You can also add other ingredients to the mayonnaise, such as chopped fresh herbs, grated ginger, or minced garlic.
  • Serve the seared tuna steaks with your favorite sides, such as rice, vegetables, or salad.

Conclusion:

Seared tuna steaks are a delicious and healthy meal that can be prepared in just a few minutes. The wasabi green onion mayonnaise is a great complement to the tuna, and it adds a bit of flavor and spice to the dish. This recipe is sure to please everyone at your table.
