Yellowfin Tuna Recipes

Steps:

• Prick tuna steaks all over with a fork and place in shallow glass dish.
• Whisk oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, lemon peel, and garlic together in a bowl; pour over the tuna steaks. Cover dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate 1 to 3 hours.
• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Remove tuna from the marinade. Shake excess moisture from the steaks.
• Pour the marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook marinade at a simmer for 10 minutes.
• Cook tuna on preheated grill, basting with boiled marinade, until cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Preheat grill to high heat.
• Rub olive oil over each steak and season with salt and pepper. Transfer steaks to grill and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side for rare. Place in the refrigerator to make the slicing easier.
• Serve with Oven-Roasted Peppers.
• Over a gas flame, or under the broiler, roast peppers until the skin blisters and turns black, turning with tongs so they get evenly charred. Place the peppers in a bowl and cover with plastic for 15 to 20 minutes. Uncover, peel off the blackened skin, remove the core, and discard the seeds and ribs. Cut the peppers into thin strips and place in a clean bowl. Add the fresh herbs, shallots, garlic, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar and toss to combine.

Steps:

• For the spice mixture: Combine all ingredients in a bowl and set aside.
• For the juice mixture: Blend all ingredients except butter and oil until smooth. Add oil and butter to finish. Add warm chicken stock and season to taste.
• For the romaine: Over high heat saute romaine ribs in olive oil until tender. Add anchovies and coriander. Finish by tossing with basil and season with lemon juice, salt and pepper.
• For the tuna: Season tuna pieces with oil and salt and pepper evenly. Place seasoned tuna in spice mixture and coat evenly. Next, heat oil in a cast iron skillet until very hot. Add tuna and cook to desired doneness and set aside to rest for a couple of minutes. Slice each piece after resting.
• Plating: Place braised romaine in center of plate. Next arrange warm tuna slices on top of romaine. Finish plate by drizzling warm juice around the plate. Serve.

Steps:

• Mix all the ingredients for the marinade in a plastic bag.
• Marinate tuna steaks for at least 4 hours in the fridge.
• While tuna is marinating, mix all ingredients up for the relish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Toss again before serving.
• Generously pepper both sides of tuna steaks.
• Pre-heat broiler and broil steaks for 5-6 minutes per side, use your judgment, you do not want to overcook - broilers vary!
• Dredge cooked steaks in toasted sesame seeds and top with relish.
• Enjoy.

Steps:

• Pour soy sauce into shallow container and place tuna into soy sauce for 10 minutes. Flip pieces over and allow to sit in soy sauce for another 10 minutes.
• Pour both types of sesame seed into a small plate and coat tuna on all sides by pressing the tuna into the seeds.
• Put olive oil into pan and heat until it reaches smoking point.
