Seared Tuna Burgers With Ginger Garlic Mayo Recipes

Steps:

• Add the sesame oil, soy sauce, red pepper flakes and egg to a large mixing bowl. Mix well, then fold in the tuna, red bell pepper and scallions. Mix well to coat everything evenly. Sprinkle with salt and fold in the panko breadcrumbs to lightly bind everything. Carefully form the mixture into 4 even-size patties and set on a platter. Refrigerate so the patties firm up and hold their shape when cooked, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Coat the pan with a little vegetable oil and cook the tuna patties 3 minutes per side (when done, the patties will be browned on the outside and medium-rare in the center).
• Grill the hamburger buns over high heat until well charred and crispy.
• Serve the tuna burgers slathered with the Spicy Sriracha Mayo, lettuce leaves and tomato slices on the toasted, seeded hamburger buns, paired with the dry Riesling.
• Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, Sriracha, sesame oil, lemon juice, honey and scallions in a large mixing bowl. Stir well to combine, season with salt and pepper and place in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, combine the cilantro, jalapeno, ginger, garlic, lime juice, soy sauce, sugar, salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Stir the ingredients together until well incorporated.
• Place a skillet over medium-high heat and coat with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season the tuna generously with salt and pepper. Lay the tuna in the hot oil and sear for 1 minute on each side to form a slight crust. Pour 1/2 of the cilantro mixture into the pan to coat the fish. Serve the seared tuna with the sliced avocado and the remaining cilantro sauce drizzled over the whole plate.

Steps:

• For the chipotle mayo: Whisk together the mayonnaise, adobo, parsley, capers, shallots, vinegar, ginger and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• For the tuna: Preheat a large grill pan on high heat until very hot.
• Drizzle both sides of each tuna steak with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Sear the steaks on each side for about 2 minutes for medium.
• Meanwhile, toast the rolls, spread with a little butter and rub with the garlic.
• Spread both sides of each roll with the chipotle mayo. Then layer on lettuce leaves, a tuna steak and some pickled red onions, jalapenos and Fried Shallots.
• In a medium, heavy-bottomed pot, add the shallots and enough oil to cover by at least 2 inches. Place the pot over medium-low heat and bring to a low simmer, stirring frequently so the shallot rings separate. Cook at a low simmer until most of the bubbles subside and the shallots are browned and crispy, 20 to 25 minutes. Use a slotted spoon or sieve to remove the shallots, place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain and season with salt. Let dry at least 1 hour. If the shallots are not completely crispy, dry in the oven at 200 degrees F for another 5 to 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat a nonstick griddle or a grill pan to high heat.
• Cube tuna into bite size pieces and place in a food processor. Pulse the processor to coarse-grind the tuna; it should take on the consistency of ground beef or turkey. Transfer tuna to a bowl. Combine ground tuna with garlic, ginger, dark soy sauce, scallions, red bell pepper, sesame oil, seasoning blend and black pepper. Form 4 large patties, 1 1/2 inches thick. Drizzle patties on both sides with light-in-color oil, such as canola, safflower or peanut oil.
• Cook tuna burgers 3 minutes on each side for rare, up to 6 minutes each side for well done. Preheat broiler.
• In a medium nonstick skillet over high heat, saute fresh shiitakes for 2 or 3 minutes in 1 tablespoon light oil -- 1 turn of the pan in a slow stream. Season mushrooms with salt and pepper.
• Open up the rolls and lightly toast them under the broiler. Spread mango chutney on the bottom of each bun. Top with tuna burger, shiitakes, red leaf lettuce. Spread wasabi mustard or sweet hot mustard on bun tops and set them in place. Serve with exotic chips and pickled ginger, if desired.

Steps:

• Make the burgers: Fit a food grinder with a grinding plate with about 1/4-inch holes. Grind tuna into a bowl. Add garlic, ginger, lemon zest, mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix gently, and shape into four 1-inch-thick patties. Cover, and refrigerate until cold and firm, about 30 minutes.
• Make the coleslaw: Whisk vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small bowl. Mix carrot, radish, cabbage, scallion, and sesame seeds in a medium bowl. Toss slaw with vinegar mixture, and refrigerate up to 1 hour.
• Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook patties to medium-rare, about 2 minutes per side. Wipe skillet clean, and return to heat. Spread mayonnaise on cut sides of roll halves, and heat, mayonnaise side down, until golden, about 1 minute. Divide burgers and slaw among bottom halves of buns. Sandwich with top halves.

Steps:

• Sprinkle tuna with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in heavy medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add tuna to skillet and cook until brown outside and just opaque in center, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer tuna to plate.
• Add ginger and garlic to same skillet; stir 30 seconds. Scrape into small bowl. Mix in mayonnaise and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper.
• Spread bottoms of rolls with mayonnaise mixture. Top with tuna, arugula and tops of rolls.

Steps:

• Heat a grill pan or large skillet over high heat.
• Place the fish in a food processor and pulse until the fish is the consistency of ground beef. Transfer the ground ahi to a bowl and mix with the ginger, garlic, tamari, black pepper, scallions, and cilantro. Form 4 equal patties and drizzle them with vegetable oil. Place the tuna burgers in a screaming hot pan and cook for 1 minute on each side for very rare, 2 minutes on each side for medium rare, 3 to 4 minutes on each side to cook through. Hold the cooked patties on a plate under foil.
• In a medium bowl combine the lettuce, sprouts, and cucumber. Dress the salad with the lime zest and juice, salt, and vegetable oil to your taste.
• Place the edamame in a microwave bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Pop a small hole in the top of the wrap and microwave on High for 5 minutes. When the time is up, sprinkle the edamame with 2 teaspoons of coarse salt and toss.
• Pile the salad up equally onto 4 plates. Top the salad with tuna patties. Pile the edamame alongside the burgers. To enjoy the edamame, shimmy the soybeans free from their pods in your mouth. Who misses fries? (Well, okay, they're good too, but soybeans are actually good for you as well!)

Steps:

• Sautee garlic in pan until brown.
• Combine garlic, lemon juice and mayonnaise.
• Combine tuna, scallions, bell pepper and eggs in a bowl.
• Separate tuna mixture into 8 patties.
• Grill patties.
• Put a patty on each sandwich thin with about a tbsp of the mayonnaise mixture.
• Note: You may want to put the tuna in a sieve with something heavy on top for a couple of hours to get it to drain, otherwise it's harder to get these burgers to stick together.

Steps:

• Start a gas or charcoal fire; heat should be moderately high and rack should be clean and about 4 inches from heat source. Brush each steak lightly with soy sauce and sprinkle with pepper. In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, fresh ginger, one teaspoon soy sauce and sesame oil if you are using it.
• Oil grill grates lightly; grill tuna about 2 minutes per side for rare, proportionately longer if you want it better done. Toast buns if you like.
• Serve fish on buns, spread with some ginger mayonnaise and topped with a bit of pickled ginger, if you like.

Steps:

• Chop tuna until it is the texture of hamburger and presses into a compact ball, and place it in a large mixing bowl.
• Add garlic, 4 tablespoons olive oil, anchovies, basil, 2 teaspoons soy sauce and salt and pepper to taste. Mix well, shape into four patties 1 inch thick, and set aside. (Patties may be placed on a wax-paper-lined baking sheet and covered and refrigerated for 1 to 8 hours. Remove from refrigerator 30 minutes before sautéing.)
• In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise with remaining soy sauce and ginger. In a mixing bowl, combine mesclun with remaining tablespoon olive oil and the vinegar. Toast buns on one side.
• Place a large sauté pan over medium-high heat and add oil. Add burgers and sauté for 1 1/2 minutes a side for rare. Set burgers aside in a warm place for 2 minutes. To serve, spread mayonnaise mixture on bottom bun, add burger, tomato and a portion of mesclun. Top with other bun. Repeat with other burgers and serve immediately.
