Steps:

  • Set a 10-inch saute pan over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once the oil is hot, season the tuna steaks on both sides with the salt and white pepper. Place the seasoned tuna in the saute pan and cook, undisturbed for 5 minutes. Turn the fish over and cook for another 5 minutes. The fish should be just cooked through. Remove the tuna from the pan and allow to rest for 3 to 4 minutes. Flake the tuna steaks into small pieces, place in a medium bowl and add the remaining ingredients.
  • Use a spatula or large spoon to toss the ingredients until well blended. Serve in lettuce cups, or with your favorite sliced bread for sandwiches.

4 1/2 teaspoons sliced green onion tops (green parts only)
1 tablespoon chopped parsley leaves
1/4 teaspoon celery seed
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Lettuce cups or sliced bread
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
2 (12-ounce) portions tuna steak
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
3 tablespoons finely chopped red onion
6 tablespoons finely chopped celery
1/4 cup sliced pimento stuffed green olives

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine tuna, mayonnaise, mustard, celery, lemon juice, zest, and salt and pepper to taste. Using a fork, mix well until thoroughly combined. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 1 day.

1 six-ounce can water-packed tuna, drained
2 tablespoons Homemade Mayonnaise, or prepared
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons finely minced celery
1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

TUNA SALAD WITH HOT AND SWEET PEPPERS

Inspired by the oil-and-vinegar tuna salads of the Mediterranean, this version includes new-world peppers. Letting thin slices of hot and sweet peppers sit with vinegar and salt for a few minutes gives them a pickled taste without taking away their crispness. It also makes for a sharp dressing when mixed with the olive oil from oil-packed tuna. Celery and parsley bring freshness to this blend, which is wonderful on its own and versatile enough to be spooned over toast or tossed with lettuce or pasta.

Tuna Salad With Hot and Sweet Peppers image

Steps:

  • Toss the pepper and the chile with the vinegar and a big pinch of salt in a large bowl. Let sit for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, cut the celery into 1/4-inch dice.
  • Add the celery, tuna with all of its oil and chopped parsley to the peppers. Toss until the tuna flakes into bite-size pieces and everything is well mixed, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

1 red, orange or yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 hot green chile, such as serrano, seeded if desired, thinly sliced
1 1/2 tablespoons sherry or red wine vinegar
Salt and black pepper
2 celery stalks
2 (5-ounce) cans or 1 (7- to 8-ounce) jar tuna packed in olive oil
1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, coarsely chopped

FRESH TUNA SALAD

There is no comparison between canned and fresh tuna salad. The taste of fresh is just so good! This salad can be used as stuffing for tomatoes, avocados, for sandwiches or as an appetizer with crackers. It's very easy to make, too. I don't like my tuna salad to have a lot of mayonnaise so you may want to add more, to taste. You may also want to play around with the spices, sometimes instead of Old Bay I'll use chopped jalapenos or add chopped fresh herbs like dill and chives. *To note, one reviewer questioned the amount of time I suggest boiling the fish and here's my answer to that: "This recipe is not for a Rare Tuna salad, it's more of a tuna salad for sandwiches, more like the diner tuna salad they make out of tinned tuna, only much better. If you are in search of a recipe for seared tuna to use in Salad Nicoise, this is not it".

Fresh Tuna Salad image

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with about 1 quart of water and add the liquid crab boil.
  • Bring to a boil.
  • Add the tuna and boil, on medium, for about 15 minutes, or until the tuna starts breaking apart easily.
  • Remove from the heat, drain, and place the tuna in a large bowl.
  • With a fork and small paring knife break apart, or shred the tuna, however you prefer it. We like a combination of shreds and little chunks.
  • Then toss in the celery and onion.
  • Mix the mayonnaise and the Old Bay and stir into the tuna.
  • Taste and adjust seasonings. Sometimes I will add salt, pepper, hot sauce -- you decide how spicy you want it.
  • You can serve it at room temperature or chilled.
