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.

Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
10 fluid ounces white wine
¼ cup minced shallots
1 tablespoon wasabi paste, or to taste
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 cup unsalted butter, cubed
salt and black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
1 cup chopped cilantro leaves
6 (6 ounce) fresh tuna steaks, 1 inch thick

Steps:

  • Combine the white wine vinegar, white wine and shallots in a small saucepan over medium heat. Simmer until the liquid is reduced to about 2 tablespoons. Strain out shallot and discard, return liquid to the pan.
  • Stir the wasabi and soy sauce into the reduction in the pan. Over low heat, gradually whisk in butter one cube at a time allowing the mixture to emulsify. Be careful not to let the mixture boil. When all of the butter has been incorporated, stir in cilantro, and remove from heat. Pour into a small bowl, and set aside.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brush tuna steaks with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Place in the hot skillet, and sear for 3 to 5 minutes on each side. Be careful not to overcook, this fish should be served still a little pink in the center. Serve with sauce.

If you don't have a gas stove, fire up your broiler, cut the pepper in half, and place it skin-side up on a cookie sheet under the broiler. Once the skin is black, let it cool.) Set aside . . .
  • 3. Add a tablespoon or two of olive oil to a pan, and sauté spinach with a little fresh minced garlic and some white wine vinegar . . .
  • 4. Towel-dry cooked spinach (so that when you add it to the rice, the moisture in the cooked spinach doesn't make the rice sticky) . . . set aside to let the spinach dry further . . .
  • 5. Cut up the roasted red pepper into bite-sized pieces and add to rice . . .
  • 6. Add spinach to the rice and fluff the rice, mixing the red pepper, rice, and spinach into an attractive pilaf . . . set aside . . . on a low burner if you'd like to keep it warm . . .keep an eye on it so it doesn't overcook or scorch . . .
  • 7. Pour about 1/4 cup of coconut milk into a sauté pan . . .
  • 8. Add equal parts sugar and wasabi powder (around two or three tablespoons each . . . whatever your taste) to the coconut milk as you gradually increase heat to allow the sugar and wasabi to melt into the coconut milk . . . be careful not to scorch . . . set aside . . . over low heat to keep warm . . . careful not to let the sauce break up . . . not too much heat . . .
  • 9. Over high heat . . . in a cast-iron skillet . . . with a touch of olive oil if you like . . . pan-sear the tuna . . . rare . . . or to your liking . . .
  • 10. Put the rice pilaf onto a plate . . . put the tuna on top of the rice . . . and ladle some of the wasabi-coconut sauce over the tuna . . . shredded coconut makes a nice garnish on this one . . . as does parsley.

Steps:

  • Mix soy, wasabi and garlic powder in a glas 8X10 baking dish. Add tuna and turn several times to coat. Let stand 15 minutes each side. (For extra flavor, I marinate up to 30 minutes each side but dont do longer because the marinade will over whelm the tuna eventually).
  • Cook beans in a large pot of boiling water for about 4 minutes.
  • Heat sesame oil at med-high. When hot, sear tuna 2 (ish) minutes each side- pepper each side before searing. Remove tuna steaks and add the marinade, brown sugar and beans. Cook until reduced - about 4 minutes.
  • Serve with white or brown rice.
