My mum in Italy would cook tuna steak on the grill, after having marinate it with a mix of extravirgin olive oil, lemon juice and fresh chopped parsley....add salt and pepper and serve it with fresh small sweet tomatoes cut in half and drizzled with olive oil, salt, basil and balsamic vinegar...It`s sooooo goood!!!Tuna recipes please?
How about chili and soya sauce - quickly marinate and then either flash fry, grill or steam...
Make a marinade with chopped garlic, pinch of chillies, olive oil, coriander, lemon or lime juice and a little soy sauce. You can shake all this up in a bottle! Pour into a sealable bag and put the tuna steaks in, squishing it all about to get the steaks covered. Leave in fridge for about half an hour (but no need to if short of time).





I then put the tuna steaks in a steamer, put some lemon slices on top with some more chopped coriander and pour the marinade over them! You do lose a lot of the marinade in the steamer though.





Alternatively just put it all in a tinfoil parcel and oven bake them (in which case you can then use the juices as a sauce)!





Or grill them with the marinade poured over them.





If you want to use the other ingredients, quarter your mushrooms and fry them with chopped garlic and onion. Add any spare marinade left over (or juices out of the tinfoil parcel) and a little cream to make a sauce.





Enjoy.

* 2 cups milk


* 3 eggs, slightly beaten


* 1/2 teaspoon salt


* 2 teaspoons grated onion


* paprika





Method:


Butter a 10x6x2-inch baking dish. Spread half of the bread into the baking dish. Top with half of the cheese then sprinkle the drained flaked tuna over the cheese layer. Layer with the other half of bread cubes and remaining 1/2 cup cheese.

Sesame crusted tuna w. black bean vermouth sauce





The tuna steaks should be at least an inch thick. For a rare steak that is still cold in the center, choose an inch and a half steak





Ingredients


For the steaks:


3/4 cup sesame seeds


4 tuna steaks, 8 ounces each and 1 inch thick


1 tablespoons olive oil


1 tablespoon grapeseed oil [or other high heat friendly oil


coarse salt


freshly ground black pepper





For the sauce:


4 tablespoons grapeseed oil


4 tablespoons black bean garlic paste


1 cup chicken broth


4 tablespoons dry vermouth


3 teaspoons cornstarch





Method


Spread the sesame seeds on a plate. Dry the tuna steaks, then rub both sides with the olive oil. Salt and pepper each side of the steak. Then press both sides into the sesame seeds to coat. [This looks particularly nice if you use black and white sesame seeds]





Heat the grapeseed oil in a skillet, preferably non-stick over high heat, so that the oil is just beginning to smoke. Put the steaks into the skillet and cook 30 seconds without moving. Reduce the heat to medium 鈥?high and then cook for a minute and a half until the seeds are turning golden brown. Use tongs to carefully flip steaks. Cook them without moving until the seeds are golden brown, about a minute and a half





At this point, the steaks should be rare, opaque on the edges and translucent red and cool at the center. For a medium rare [reddish pink] at the center, cook for three minutes. If you do want a rare to medium rare steak, be sure to slice the steak right after it is removed from the pan, otherwise it will continue to cook





You don't want a nasty surprise when you cut into it five minutes later to find that your beautiful rare tuna is now medium





For the sauce:


Heat a wok or heavy skillet over medium 鈥?high heat. Add the oil, the black bean garlic paste. Stir 鈥?fry about 12 seconds. Add the broth, vermouth and cornstarch and stir 鈥?fry about 1 minute or until sauce thickens. Makes about 1 1/2 cups sauce





Put some of the sauce on each plate and the steaks on top. Drizzle more sauce on top if you wish
Coriander, Fennel, and Pepper Crusted Tuna with Watermelon Salsa








Watermelon salsa:


2 cups watermelon, peeled, seeded, and diced


1 tablespoon sliced onion


1 tablespoon diced poblano pepper or 1 teaspoon diced jalapeno pepper


1/2 cup diced sweet yellow pepper


1 teaspoon chopped garlic


3 tablespoons chopped cilantro


Juice of 2 limes


1 teaspoon grated lime zest


Salt and freshly ground pepper


For spice blend:


1 tablespoon coriander seeds


1 tablespoon fennel seeds


2 teaspoons black peppercorns


24 ounces tuna (4 pieces, 1-1/2 inches thick)


2 teaspoons olive oil








To prepare the watermelon salsa, in a mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients and season with salt and pepper.


To prepare spice blend, grind all spices in a mini food processor or spice grinder they are powdery. Spread the spice mixture evenly on a large plate.





Rinse the tuna fillets and pat dry. Place one side of each piece of tuna into the spice mixture. Shake off excess.





In a 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil over high heat until almost smoking. Carefully place two of the tuna fillets, spiced side down, into the skillet. A spice crust should form within 1 minute. Using kitchen tongs, turn over the tuna, lower the heat to medium, and cook for 2 to 5 minutes to desired doneness. Repeat the process with the remaining tuna fillets. For Watermelon Salsa:
Working in in Restaurants most my life the best tuna i ever had was seasoned with Seafood Magic which can be found at most grocery stores.





Sear the tuna on a grill or in a with a touch of oil to it. Sear each side for 30 seconds.





For a sauce I recommend Wasabi, Soy, Ginger, and a dab of honey.





Now re-reading your question I see u want a recipe for the items you have at hand. If you have cilantro or parsley mix it with some chopped garlic and citrus juice and a touch of oil. Fresh lime would be my first choice followed by lemon or a squeezed orange. add the mushrooms (keep them bite size if u have to cut them)





Let it soak for 30 min and grill both the tuna and the mushrooms. Salt and pepper when the tuna is seared on all sides and enjoy.
