GRILLED TUNA



Grilled Tuna image

Tuna is available most of the year, so fresh steaks should be easy to come by. Be choosy: a reddish color is acceptable, but flesh with dark spots or streaks should be avoided. As with all great ocean fish, the flesh tends to be dry. Marinate with oil, and avoid overcooking. The timing is critical, as tuna should be served medium rare. Use a kitchen timer.

Time 1h

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 medium waxy potatoes, like Yellow Finn, Yukon gold, or Bintje
1 1/2 pounds fresh tuna steak, cut at least 1 inch thick
2 red or yellow bell peppers (or 1 of each), roasted, skinned and seeded
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, or more as needed
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
3 shallots, peeled and finely chopped
2 tablespoons finely chopped Italian parsley

4 large handfuls of mixed greens, like basil, arugula, radicchio, bibb lettuce, chicory, dandelion and endive
2 tomatoes, peeled, cut into 6 wedges and seeded

Steps:

  • Put the potatoes in a 4-quart pot and cover with cold water. Simmer gently until tender, about 25 minutes, being careful not to overcook them.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the grill, adjusting the rack 2 inches above the coals. Trim the tuna, discarding the skin and any dark purple flesh. Refrigerate.
  • Cut the roasted peppers lengthwise into 1/4-inch-wide strips. Put in a bowl and toss with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.

Sprinkle with 1/4 of the shallots, 1/4 of the parsley and salt and pepper. Repeat the layers until all the potatoes are used. Whisk 2 teaspoons of the vinegar with 1 tablespoon of the oil and pour over the top.
  • Lightly rub the tuna steaks with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until charred on the outside and rare in the center, about 2 minutes per side.
  • Place the greens in a large salad bowl and top with the potato mixture, the peppers and the tomatoes. Slice the tuna into 1/4-inch strips and arrange on top of the salad. Just before serving, make a vinaigrette from the remaining vinegar and oil and pour over the salad. Season with salt and pepper. Taste and toss with more vinegar or oil if needed. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right tuna. Opt for sushi-grade or sashimi-grade tuna steaks for the best flavor and texture.
  • Marinate the tuna. Marinating the tuna in a mixture of olive oil, soy sauce, orange juice, and herbs helps to tenderize and flavor the fish.
  • Cook the tuna properly. Tuna is best cooked over high heat for a short period of time, so that it remains rare or medium-rare in the center.
  • Make the candied lemons. Candied lemons add a sweet and tangy flavor to the salad. To make them, simply simmer lemon zest in a mixture of sugar and water until the zest is translucent.
  • Make the chili aioli. Chili aioli is a creamy and spicy sauce that complements the tuna and orange salad perfectly. To make it, simply combine mayonnaise, chili peppers, garlic, and lemon juice.
  • Make the herb tuile. Herb tuile is a crispy and flavorful garnish that adds a touch of elegance to the salad. To make it, simply combine flour, butter, eggs, and herbs, and then bake until golden brown.

Conclusion:

Grilled tuna and orange salad with candied lemon and mixed baby greens with chili aioli and herb tuile is a delicious and refreshing summer dish. The tuna is tender and flavorful, the oranges are sweet and tangy, and the candied lemons, chili aioli, and herb tuile add a variety of flavors and textures that make this salad truly special.
