This gives tuna a whole new taste! Comes from my mothers favorite cookbook by Jackie Olden. The original recipe served 8-10, so I've down sized it a bit.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my dish didn't turn out as good as I expected. The tuna was overcooked, and the sauce was too runny.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning.
