Broiled Tuna Steaks With Onion Compote Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat until hot. Add onions; cook about 15 minutes or until onions are golden brown, stirring occasionally.
• Add peppercorns, bay leaf and wine. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Move onions to side of skillet. If necessary, add additional oil to skillet. Increase heat to high. Add tuna steaks; cook about 3 minutes or until browned on both sides.
• Reduce heat to medium; cook 4 to 6 minutes or until fish flakes easily with fork, stirring onions occasionally. Serve tuna steaks with onions.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler or an outdoor grill.
• In a mixing bowl, blend the salt, pepper, ginger, thyme, soy sauce, lemon juice and olive oil. Brush the mixture all over the tuna. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand about an hour or until ready to broil.
• Arrange the steaks on a rack and place under the broiler or over the grill about 4 inches from the source of heat. Broil about 3 minutes. If using the oven, leave the door partly open. Turn the steaks, continue broiling, leaving the door partly open, for another 3 minutes. The center should remain pink.
• Serve with tomato and herb vinaigrette on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat a charcoal grill or broiler.
• Place the tuna steaks on a flat surface, and cut out the dark streak of meat, if any. Brush with olive oil on both sides, and sprinkle with salt, thyme and pepper flakes. Cover with plastic wrap, and let stand for 15 minutes before broiling.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining olive oil in a heavy casserole, and add the onions. Cover. Cook over medium-high heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. When the onions start to brown, uncover and add the vinegar, clove and Tabasco. Add salt to taste. Cook briefly, stirring, until the vinegar has almost evaporated. Stir in the capers and honey. Cover tightly, and simmer for 15 minutes more.
• Sprinkle the tuna on both sides with the cracked peppercorns.
• If you are using a grill, rub the rack lightly with oil. Place the fish on the grill. If you are using a broiler, place the fish on a rack about 4 inches from the heat. Cook for 3 minutes, and turn. For rare, cook for another 3 minutes.
• To serve, place equal portions of onion compote on the side of four warmed plates. Place a tuna steak on each plate, and sprinkle with basil.

Steps:

• Rinse and pat tuna steaks dry. Place zest on top of cutting board. Pile rosemary and parsley leaves on top of zest. Pile garlic and some coarse salt and black pepper or grill seasoning on top of herbs. Finely chop the garlic, herbs, and spices. Drizzle the olive oil over the tuna steaks just enough to coat each side. Rub herb and garlic mixture into fish, coating pieces evenly on each side. Let stand 10 minutes.
• Grill tuna steaks 6 minutes on each side or 4 minutes on each side, if you prefer pink tuna at the center. Cook steaks over: high setting on indoor electric grill, medium high heat on outdoor gas grill or, 6 inches from hot, prepared charcoal.
• Combine first 4 ingredients in a bowl or large food storage plastic bag. Coat mushroom caps evenly in marinade.
• Place mushroom caps on the grill cap-side-up and season with grill seasoning or salt and pepper. If you are using an indoor tabletop electric grill, preheat to 400 degrees F or "high" setting. If you are using an outdoor gas grill, preheat to medium high; for a charcoal grill, prepare coals and cook mushrooms 6 inches from hot coals. Mushrooms will cook 4 to 6 minutes on each side. Cook mushrooms covered or under tin foil tent and turn occasionally.
• Combine tomatoes, rosemary, and smoked mozzarella. Drizzle with oil and toss.
• Fill mushroom caps with tomato mixture and top with sliced mozzarella. The mushrooms will look like small pizzas. Place caps in oven at 425 degrees F until cheese melts or you can close grill lid or replace tin foil tent over mushroom caps to melt cheese, it will take 1 to 3 minutes. Serve as-is or, place stuffed caps on garlic toast or sliced crusty bread to catch the juices.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large saute pan. Add the onions, sugar, cinnamon and red pepper flakes and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden brown and caramelized, about 30 minutes. Stir in a few tablespoons of water and the vinegar. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Stir in the mint and chopped parsley just before serving.
• Heat the grill to high for direct grilling. Brush the tuna on both sides with the canola oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the tuna until golden brown and slightly charred on both sides and cooked to medium-rare doneness, about 2 minutes each side.
• Slice the tuna steaks thickly across the grain and shingle them on a serving platter. Spoon the onion mixture down the center. Keep at room temperature about 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Using a zip-lock plastic bag, combine all ingredients except fish; shake to combine.
• Place tuna steaks in bag with marinade; chill for at least 30 minutes.
• Broil or grill until done-- brushing with marinade (medium-well done is 4 minutes per side for 3/4 to 1 inch steaks).
