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.

TUNA WITH CAPERS, OLIVES AND LEMON



Tuna With Capers, Olives and Lemon image

This is not your mother's mayonnaise-laden tuna salad, but it's just as easy to prepare. Here's what you do: stir together some canned tuna, garlic, lemon juice, red onion, black olives, capers and fresh parsley, then spread it on buttered toast. Top it off with a round of ripe tomato or slivers of avocado and another slice of toast. That's it. If you want to make it into a dip, toss the mixture into a food processor with a few tablespoons of softened butter and a bit more olive oil. Purée until smooth and creamy and serve with carrots, fennel, bell pepper and seeded crackers. If you have a tin of sardines taunting you from inside your cabinet, we bet this recipe would work equally well with those.

GRILLED TUNA WITH RED WINE, CAPER, AND OLIVE SAUCE/THON GRILLE' AU JUS DE RAITO



Grilled Tuna With Red Wine, Caper, And Olive Sauce/Thon Grille' au Jus de Raito image

Number Of Ingredients 16

FOR THE FISH:
4 tuna steaks, (each 6 to 8 ounces and about 1 inch thick)
2 tablespoons olive oil, extra-virgin
salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
FOR THE RAITO:
1/3 cup olive oil, extra-virgin
1 onion, medium, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tomato, fresh, ripe, peeled and seeded, then finely chopped
2 cups dry red wine
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 sprig thyme, fresh or 1/4 teaspoon dried
1 bay leaf
1/4 cup olives, black, preferably tiny Nicoise, pitted
2 tablespoons capers, drained
salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Brush the tuna steaks on both sides with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Place in a baking dish, cover, and let marinate, in the refrigerator, for 30 minutes.2. Preheat the grill to high.3. While the steaks marinate, prepare the raïto. Heat 3 tablespoons of the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add the tomato and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the wine, tomato paste, thyme, bay leaf, olives, and capers and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer briskly until the mixture is reduced by half, about 10 minutes.4. Remove the sauce from the heat and discard the thyme sprig and bay leaf. Whisk in the remaining oil and salt and pepper the mixture should be highly seasoned (see Note). Cover and keep the sauce warm.5. When ready to cook, oil the grill grate. Arrange the steaks, facing in the same direction, on the hot grate and grill until cooked to taste, 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium rare, turning over carefully with a long spatula. For an attractive crosshatch of grill marks, rotate the steaks 90 degrees after the first 2 minutes on each side.6. Transfer the steaks to serving plates or a platter and serve immediately, with the sauce spooned on top.Serves 4Note: Chef Guillet likes the refinement of puréeing the sauce in a blender, adding the olives and capers at the end instead of before the sauce is reduced he returns the sauce to the pan just to heat the olives and capers through. Being a robust sort of guy, I like the gutsiness of an unstrained sauce, but purée it, if you so fancy.

Tips:

  • To ensure the best results, it's essential to select high-quality, fresh tuna steaks. Look for steaks that are firm to the touch and have a vibrant red color. Avoid steaks that appear slimy or have any off-putting odors.
  • Before grilling, marinate the tuna steaks in a flavorful mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices. This will help to enhance the flavor and tenderness of the fish. Marinate the steaks for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight for deeper flavor.
  • When grilling the tuna steaks, it's important to use a well-oiled grill to prevent the fish from sticking. Cook the steaks over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 130-135°F (54-57°C) for medium-rare.
  • While the tuna steaks are grilling, prepare the red wine caper and olive sauce. This sauce is a delicious accompaniment to the grilled tuna, and it can be easily made in a saucepan or skillet.
  • Once the tuna steaks and sauce are ready, serve them immediately. The grilled tuna can be served alongside a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
