Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 25

½ cup olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
4 (6 ounce) fillets ahi (yellowfin) tuna steaks, sushi-grade if possible
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 ½ teaspoons fresh lime juice
1 ½ teaspoons soy sauce
1 shallot, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 ½ teaspoons fresh thyme
1 ½ teaspoons chopped fresh dill
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
½ jalapeno or serrano chili pepper, seeded and chopped
1 ½ teaspoons minced ginger
¾ cup olive oil
Kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste
48 haricots verts (thin, French green beans), trimmed
16 baby carrots, greens trimmed to 1/4-inch
16 grape or cherry tomatoes, halved
16 Nicoise, Gaeta, or Kalamata olives, pitted and halved
1 red onion, thinly sliced
1 cup chervil sprigs

Steps:

  • Stir together 1/2 cup olive oil, 1 tablespoon parsley, and red pepper flakes. Toss tuna with marinade, and set aside to marinate for 30 minutes.
  • Pour vinegar, orange juice, lemon juice, lime juice, and soy sauce into the bowl of a blender. Add shallot, 1 tablespoon parsley, thyme, dill, honey, Dijon mustard, jalapeno, and ginger. Blend on high until smooth, then add 3/4 cups olive oil in a slow, steady stream with the blender running. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and set aside.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Fill another large container with half ice, half cold water, and set aside. Add the haricots verts to the boiling water, and cook until just tender, 35 to 40 seconds. Remove from the water, and immediately plunge into the ice water to cool. Next, blanch the carrots until just tender, about 1 1/2 minutes; chill in ice water until cold.
  • When the vegetables are cold, remove from the ice water and pat dry. Place into a large bowl, and toss with the halved tomatoes, olives, onion, and chervil; set aside.
  • Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat until very hot. Remove tuna steaks from marinade, and wipe off excess marinade. Season the tuna to taste with salt and pepper, then sear in hot skillet to desired doneness, about 1 minute per side for rare.
  • To assemble, toss the vegetable salad with enough dressing to lightly coat. Divide the salad among 4 plates, and place a seared tuna steak on top of each. Drizzle with additional dressing to serve.

PAN SEARED TUNA



Pan Seared Tuna image

I don't know if any of you have friends that won't eat 'raw' fish but I've conformed a bunch of my leary friends after they had this extremely rare tuna which was described by them more like a steak. Lots of oooos and ahhhhs. I like to add Asian Seasoning in the sauce also from the Pampered Chef line. Very Good and do not over cook the tuna, should be rare. I usually serve this as an appetizer but would make a great meal too!

Provided by Alex Bluett

Categories     Salad     Seafood Salad Recipes     Tuna Salad Recipes

Time 1h35m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
3 tablespoons lime juice
4 teaspoons fish sauce
2 teaspoons white sugar
salt and pepper to taste
¼ cup olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon grated lime zest
½ fresh red chile pepper, seeded and minced
1 bunch cilantro, stems and leaves separated
2 (8 ounce) tuna steaks
1 bunch watercress, trimmed
12 cherry tomatoes, halved
½ fresh red chile pepper, cut into matchsticks

Steps:

  • Whisk together the ginger, lime juice, fish sauce, sugar, salt and pepper in a bowl until the sugar has dissolved. Slowly whisk in olive oil until incorporated. Set aside and refrigerate half of this mixture to be used as a salad dressing later. Whisk the garlic, lime zest, minced chile pepper, and cilantro stems into the marinade. Coat the tuna steaks with the marinade, cover, and let stand for 1 hour at room temperature.
  • Preheat a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Once the skillet is very hot, remove the tuna from the marinade, and place into the skillet. Sear the tuna until golden brown on both sides, and cooked to your desired degree of doneness, about 2 minutes per side for medium, depending on thickness.
  • Place the watercress in a large bowl with the cilantro leaves, cherry tomatoes, and sliced chile pepper. Pour in the reserved dressing, and toss to mix. Serve the seared tuna on a bed of salad.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality tuna steaks: Look for steaks that are bright red and firm to the touch. Avoid steaks that are brown or have any signs of spoilage.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet: This will help to ensure that the tuna cooks evenly and doesn't stick to the pan.
  • Heat the skillet over high heat: This will help to sear the tuna and create a nice crust.
  • Season the tuna with salt and pepper: This will help to enhance the flavor of the fish.
  • Cook the tuna for 2-3 minutes per side: This will cook the tuna to a medium-rare doneness. If you prefer your tuna more cooked, cook it for an additional minute or two per side.
  • Serve the tuna immediately with the ginger-miso-cilantro sauce: This sauce is the perfect complement to the tuna and will help to elevate the flavor of the dish.

Conclusion:

Pan-seared tuna with ginger-miso-cilantro sauce is a delicious and healthy meal that can be prepared in just 30 minutes. The tuna is cooked to perfection and the sauce is flavorful and refreshing. This dish is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion dinner.
