Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons good olive oil, plus extra for searing
1 1/2 cups diced yellow onion (2 onions)
2 teaspoons peeled, minced fresh ginger
1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 ripe mangos, peeled, seeded, and small diced

  • Saute the olive oil, onions, and ginger in a large saute pan over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, or until the onions are translucent. Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Add the mangos, reduce the heat to low and cook for 10 more minutes. Add the orange juice, brown sugar, salt, black pepper, and jalapeno; cook for 10 more minutes, until orange juice is reduced, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and add the mint.

GRILLED TUNA STEAKS WITH MANGO SALSA RECIPE - (4.1/5)

Provided by chezus

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 large, firm but ripe mango, medium dice
1 medium tomato, small dice
1 medium Jalapeno, seeded and diced into small pieces
1 small red onion, diced finely
2 tablespoons lime juice
1/4 cup cilantro, roughly chopped
Salt to taste
2 ahí tuna steaks
Olive oil

Steps:

  • Salsa: Combine all of the salsa ingredients in a small bowl. Stir, just enough to mix. Put into the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors combine together. Preheat barbecue grill or a stovetop grill. Lightly coat both sides of the ahi steaks with some olive oil. Place the steak onto direct heat, and cook only until grill marks form; about 3 to 5 minutes depending on how hot the grill is. Turn the steak over and cook for another 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the ahi from the heat, and set aside. Do not overcook the tuna or the flesh will become dry and lose its flavor. The steak will have a white ring around the edges and the center will be very pink when it is finished cooking. Remove from the grill. Spoon the salsa over the top. Serve. Eat.

GRILLED TUNA STEAKS WITH MANGO SALSA

From inside the carton of a tube of Amore Garlic Paste. Saving here for safe keeping as I couldn't find the same recipe already posted. I am guessing on times as I haven't had a chance to make this yet since we still have several feet of snow on!!! (Doesn't include marinating time.) **Made this last night on the griddle pan on the stovetop. Loved it and can't wait to try this on the charcoal grill... Light, filling and flavorful!

GRILLED PACIFIC HALIBUT WITH MANGO SALSA



Grilled Pacific Halibut With Mango Salsa image

This sweet and spicy salsa goes beautifully with a firm, white fish like halibut. Make sure your mango is very ripe. Mangos are a good source of potassium, vitamin A and beta-carotene. You would think that such a sweet fruit would be high in calories, but because of all the water in a juicy mango, the caloric content is relatively low - about 135 calories in a whole mango, according to nutritionist and author Jonny Bowden.

Time 30m

Yield Serves four

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 large, ripe mango
2 serrano chiles, minced
1 tablespoon finely chopped cilantro
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh mint
1/4 cup finely diced jicama
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
Salt
freshly ground pepper to taste
4 6-ounce Pacific halibut fillets or steaks
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 limes, cut in wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Finely dice the mango. Cut down the broad side of the mango, slightly off center, from the stem end to the tip end. The knife should scrape against the side of the pit. Repeat on the other side, cutting as close to the pit as possible. Cut the flesh from the sides of the pit, following the curve of the pit. Lay each half on your cutting surface, and score with the tip of your knife in a cross-hatch pattern, down to the skin but not through it. Turn the mango half inside out, and slice the cubes away from the skin. Then cut the cubes into very small dice.
  • Toss the mango in a bowl with the chiles, cilantro, mint, jicama and lime juice. Season with salt if desired. Cover the bowl, and allow to sit for an hour while you prepare your grill.
  • Heat a medium-hot grill (or heat an indoor griddle or grill pan). Season the halibut fillets or steaks with salt and pepper, and toss with the olive oil in a bowl. Place the fish directly over the coals, and grill for four to five minutes per side, depending on the thickness. The fish should be opaque all the way through, and you should be able to pull it apart with a fork.
  • Remove the fish to a plate or a platter. Serve with the salsa spooned partially over the fish and partially on the side. Alternately, spoon the salsa onto plates and set the fish on top. Garnish with lime wedges and serve.

Tips:

  • Buy the freshest tuna steaks possible. Look for steaks that are firm to the touch and have a bright red color. Avoid steaks that are brown or have any signs of spoilage.
  • Marinate the tuna steaks for at least 30 minutes before grilling. This will help to tenderize the steaks and add flavor.
  • Cook the tuna steaks over medium-high heat. This will help to sear the outside of the steaks while keeping the inside moist.
  • Do not overcook the tuna steaks. Tuna steaks should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. Overcooked tuna steaks will be dry and tough.
  • Serve the grilled tuna steaks immediately with mango papaya salsa. Mango papaya salsa is a refreshing and flavorful sauce that complements the grilled tuna perfectly.

Conclusion:

Grilled tuna with mango papaya salsa is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a summer cookout. The tuna steaks are grilled to perfection and the mango papaya salsa adds a refreshing and flavorful touch. This dish is sure to please everyone at your next gathering.
