Soygingersearedahituna Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the sherry, soy sauce, honey, garlic, lime juice, chili sauce, and ginger in small sauce pan. Put the tuna steaks in a baking dish and pour a quarter cup of the marinade over the steaks. Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes (or refrigerated for up to two hours).
• Prepare a medium-hot charcoal fire or preheat a gas grill to medium-high. (We like to use our indoor grill pan in the winter - just make sure it is smoking hot.).
• Remove the tuna steaks from marinade and pat dry. Brush the steaks on both sides with vegetable oil. Grill, turning once, for 3 to 5 minutes on each side. Be careful, as the tuna will get dry if overcooked.
• Meanwhile, put the remaining marinade in a small saucepan over medium-high heat and cook until reduced to syrupy consistency, about 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in sesame oil. Serve the tuna teaks with the soy-ginger glaze and top with a heaping portion of the pickled cucumbers.
• Pickled Cuke Preparation
• Put the cukes and red onion in a small bowl. Add the vinegar and toss to coat evenly. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 days.

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:

• Make sauce:
• In a large saucepan combine citrus juices, tamari or soy sauce, vinegar, oil, and gingerroot and simmer 15 minutes. Pour sauce through a fine sieve into a bowl. (Sauce may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Reheat sauce before preceeding.)
• Preheat oven to 400°F..
• In a large non-stick skillet, heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. Coat 2 tuna steaks with sesame seeds and sear 1 minute on each side, transferring to a baking sheet. Coat and sear remaining 4 tuna steaks in batches in same manner. Cook tuna in middle of oven 3 minutes for medium-rare.
• Cut each tuna steak into 4 slices and arrange slices, cut side up, on 6 plates. Pour about 1/4 cup sauce around tuna on each plate.

Steps:

• Spray a large skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium-high heat. Add tuna steaks to the hot skillet and sear 90 seconds on each side. Remove tuna steaks to a plate.
• Reduce heat to medium-low. Whisk soy sauce and honey together in small bowl. Add to the skillet with apple and ginger. Saute until tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Serve sauce on the side or on top of tuna steaks.

Steps:

• Flavored mayonnaise is easy to make, and it lends added appeal to any sandwich. Here, sesame oil, soy sauce, ginger and green onions give the spread an Asian flair. Mix first 5 ingredients in small bowl to blend. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Sprinkle tuna with salt and pepper. Heat vegetable oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add tuna and cook to desired doneness, about 2 minutes per side for medium-rare.
• Spread mayonnaise mixture over 1 side of each bread slice. Top 4 bread slices with cucumber, radishes, then avocado, dividing equally. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Top with tuna steaks. Place remaining bread slices, mayonnaise side down, atop tuna. Cut sandwiches in half and serve immediately.
