Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 large onions, halved and thinly sliced
1 tablespoon sugar
2 cinnamon sticks
Pinch red pepper flakes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, plus whole leaves for garnish
4 tuna steaks, 1 1/2-inches thick
2 tablespoon canola oil

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large saute pan. Add the onions, sugar, cinnamon and red pepper flakes and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden brown and caramelized, about 30 minutes. Stir in a few tablespoons of water and the vinegar. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Stir in the mint and chopped parsley just before serving.
  • Heat the grill to high for direct grilling. Brush the tuna on both sides with the canola oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the tuna until golden brown and slightly charred on both sides and cooked to medium-rare doneness, about 2 minutes each side.
  • Slice the tuna steaks thickly across the grain and shingle them on a serving platter. Spoon the onion mixture down the center. Keep at room temperature about 15 minutes before serving.

MISO-GLAZED TUNA KEBABS



Miso-Glazed Tuna Kebabs image

A spin on Nobu's famous miso-glazed black cod, these tuna kebabs are uncommonly satisfying-like umami on a stick. Shiro miso-aided and abetted by mirin and lush mayonnaise-asserts itself beautifully against the meaty tuna. The sugar in the marinade caramelizes over the hot grill, giving the quickly cooked tuna some tantalizingly crisp edges.

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.
