ROASTED RED PEPPER FILLED WITH TUNA



Roasted Red Pepper Filled With Tuna image

This recipe is an adaptation of a classic Provençal dish. A roasted red pepper filled with a flavorful combination of canned tuna, capers, anchovy and lemon juice makes a satisfying and healthy meal for one.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     easy, for one, quick, roasts

Time 15m

Yield 1 generous serving

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 medium size or large red bell pepper
1 garlic clove
Pinch of salt
1 anchovy fillet, soaked in water to cover for 10 to 15 minutes, then drained, rinsed and patted dry (optional but recommended)
1 teaspoon capers, rinsed
1 5-oz. can water-packed tuna or olive oil-packed tuna, to taste
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (omit if using olive oil-packed tuna)
1 tablespoon plain low-fat yogurt (more to taste)
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Roast the pepper directly over a gas burner or under the broiler, turning often until uniformly charred. Remove from the heat, and place in a bowl. Cover tightly, and allow to cool.
  • While you're waiting for the pepper to cool, make the tuna filling. Combine the garlic and a generous pinch of salt in a mortar and pestle, and mash to a paste. Add the anchovy, if using, and mash with the garlic. Add the capers, and mash together. In a bowl, break up the tuna with a fork, then stir in the garlic mixture, the lemon juice, olive oil and the yogurt. Add more yogurt or olive oil if the mixture seems dry. Season to taste with pepper (it should not need salt), and stir in the parsley.
  • When the pepper is cool enough to handle, peel and discard the blackened skin, rinse briefly and pat dry. Cut away the top, then cut or pull apart the pepper into thirds. Remove seeds and membranes, holding the pepper over a bowl so that you can catch any juice. Lay the pepper pieces on a plate. Season with a little salt and pepper if desired, and fill with the tuna mixture. Serve.

A spicy pepper coating and an Asian-style sauce give these tuna steaks an intense flavor. Joan serves mashed or oven-roasted sweet potatoes alongside. Look for the sesame oil in the Asian foods section of the supermarket.

  • Combine black pepper and sesame seeds in bowl.

SPICED TUNA STEAKS WITH FENNEL AND RED PEPPERS



Spiced Tuna Steaks with Fennel and Red Peppers image

Categories     Sauté     Quick & Easy     Low Cal     Low/No Sugar     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Tuna     Fennel     Bell Pepper     Gourmet

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 9

two 6-ounce tuna steaks, each 1 inch thick
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil plus additional oil for brushing
1 tablespoon fennel seeds
1 1/2 teaspoons black peppercorns
1 medium fennel bulb (sometimes called anise, about 1 pound), trimmed and cut into 1/4-inch crosswise slices
1 medium red bell pepper, quartered and cut into 1/4-inch slices
2 large garlic cloves, sliced thin
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Lightly brush tuna steaks with some additional oil and season with salt. Crush fennel seeds and peppercorns coarse in a mortar with a pestle and press onto both sides of tuna steaks. Let tuna steaks stand on a plate 10 minutes.
  • In a heavy non-stick skillet sauté fennel bulb in 1 1/2 tablespoons oil over moderately high heat, stirring, until golden. Add bell pepper and garlic and sauté 1 minute. Add water and simmer vegetables, covered, 10 minutes, or until fennel is tender. Remove lid and, if necessary, boil mixture until liquid is nearly evaporated. Add lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste and keep warm.
  • While fennel mixture is cooking, brush a heavy skillet, preferably cast-iron, with some additional oil and heat over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. Sauté tuna steaks 2 minutes on each side, or until barely pink in center, for medium meat. Transfer tuna steaks to plates and spoon fennel-pepper mixture over and around them.

Tips:

  • Choose the right tuna steaks: Look for steaks that are at least 1 inch thick and have a deep red color. Avoid steaks that are thin or have a yellow or brown hue.
  • Sear the tuna steaks properly: Searing the tuna steaks in a hot pan helps to create a crispy crust and lock in the juices. Make sure to sear the steaks for only 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Don't overcook the tuna steaks: Tuna steaks are best when they are cooked rare or medium-rare. Overcooking the steaks will make them dry and tough.
  • Make sure the roasted red pepper sauce is flavorful: The roasted red pepper sauce is a key component of this dish, so make sure it is flavorful and well-seasoned. You can adjust the amount of garlic, chili flakes, and herbs to taste.
  • Serve the tuna steaks immediately: Tuna steaks are best served immediately after they are cooked. This will ensure that they are still juicy and tender.

Conclusion:

Tuna steaks with roasted red pepper sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The tuna steaks are seared until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the roasted red pepper sauce is flavorful and creamy. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
