Grilled Jalapeno Tuna Steaks Recipes

Steps:

• To grill the tuna, get a charcoal or stove-top cast-iron grill very hot. Brush the fish with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill each side for only 2 to 2 1/2 minutes. The center should be raw, like sushi, or the tuna will be tough and dry. Allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes and serve.

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.
• Serving suggestions: garlic toasts or grilled crusty bread
• 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:

• Preheat a charcoal grill or the oven broiler.
• In a small bowl blend the salt, curry powder, black pepper, and anise and sesame seeds.
• Sprinkle the tuna steaks on both sides with the mixture. Coat evenly and press down so that the mixture adheres well to the steaks. Brush both sides with the oil. Cover with plastic and let stand for 15 minutes at room temperature.
• If the tuna is to be grilled make sure the grill is very clean and hot before cooking. Place the steaks on the hot grill. For rare, cook for about 1 1/2 minutes, turn them, and cook for 1 1/2 minutes more. For greater doneness, cook a little longer on each side. If oven-broiled, arrange the steaks on a rack and place under the broiler about 4 inches from the heat. Broil for 2 minutes with the door partly open. Turn the steaks and continue broiling, leaving the door open for rare. Remove, and let stand before serving.
• To serve, place the mixed green salad in the center of the plate. Cut the tuna into thin slices on the bias and place the slices around the salad.

Steps:

• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Mix cantaloupe, onion, cilantro, 2 teaspoons oil, lime juice and jalapeño chili in small bowl. Season salsa to taste with salt and pepper. Let stand 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, brush tuna steaks on both sides with remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill tuna until just opaque in center, about 3 minutes per side.
• Transfer tuna to plates. Spoon salsa alongside and serve.

Steps:

• Whisk olive oil, lime juice, jalapeno pepper, garlic, salt, and pepper together in a flat baking dish. Place the tuna steaks in the dish, turning to coat entirely in marinade; cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Cook steaks on the preheated grill until beginning to firm and hot in the center, 5 to 7 minutes per side.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic, roasted red bell pepper, minced jalapeno pepper, zest and juice from lime, cumin, cilantro and freshly ground black pepper.
• Pour mixture into a shallow dish and add tuna steaks.
• Cover with foil and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Place tuna steaks on a well oiled grill rack and cook over a medium heated grill, approximately 7 to 8 minutes each side.

Steps:

• In a bowl combine all marinade ingredients until well blended.
• Place the tuna steaks into a shallow glass dish (I use an 11 x 7-inch baking pan for this).
• Pour the marinade over the tuna steaks and turn to coat.
• Cover with plastic wrap.
• Refrigerate 8-24 hours (turning a couple of times during chilling).
• Preheat the grill to HIGH heat.
• Oil the grill grate.
• Remove the steaks from marinade (discard any marinade) and place on a plate.
• Season lightly with freshly ground black pepper on both sides.
• Grill the steaks for 5 minutes per side or until rare or medium-rare (DO NOT overcook the tuna or it will be dry!).
• Delicious!

Steps:

• Roast garlic and jalapeños in a small, dry skillet over medium heat, turning occasionally, until soft (both will blacken in spots), 5 to 10 minutes for jalapeños, 15 minutes for garlic. Cool, then peel garlic. Puree garlic, jalapeños, lime juice and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a blender until smooth. Scoop 1/2 cup puree into a 13" x 9" glass baking dish. Place fish on puree, flipping once to coat both sides. Cover dish; refrigerate 10 to 20 minutes to marinate. Transfer remaining puree into another bowl for salsa. Mix in tomatoes. Rinse onion in a small strainer under cold water; drain. Add to tomato mixture. Stir in cilantro, mint and basil. Season with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Coat grill with cooking spray; heat to medium-high (about 375°F). Remove fish from marinade; place on grill. Cover grill and cook 3 minutes. Uncover, flip fish, cover again and cook until fish is done, about 2 minutes more for medium-rare. Transfer fish to plates; spoon salsa on top.
