Anyone have a good TUNA recipe?

[MadAl]

I marinade (for a couple of hours, max) in a simple teriaki sauce, soy sauce, some brown sugar, grated ginger and scallions, use the leftover to make a dipping sauce, add a half teaspoon or so of corn starch and heat it up until it just starts to boil.

This is the first recipe that popped into my mind.

Anything with a strong flavor will work. Soy sauce, something acidic, etc... I've grilled tuna up with salt and a decent amount of cracked black pepper and it has been good.

Cajun Tuna Remoulade

Ingredients:

4 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 teaspoon lemon juice
2 small (.5 oz) yellow peppers, pickled, hot; seeded, minced
1/4 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
2 tablespoons dill weed, fresh; chopped
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons dill pickle; minced
1/2 teaspoon horseradish
2 large eggs; hard cooked, sliced
2 each (6 oz) tuna steaks; fresh

Directions:

Combine all ingredients, except eggs and tuna, in a small mixing bowl. Refrigerate until needed. Heat a heavy nonstick skillet over medium high heat, or preheat BBQ. Lightly oil outside of tuna steaks and season with a little salt and pepper. Place in heated pan or on BBQ. Cook on each side for about 2 - 3 minutes or to desired doneness. Serve each steak topped with sliced egg and a tablespoon of the remoulade.

I like Alton Brown's recipe as well although I haven't tried it yet. I might just run down to my local Asian market and have them slice up a nice chunk of Ahi.

I get fresh tuna from time to time (deep sea neighbor.) My fav. prep. is to marinate in Italian dressing for a couple of hours, and get the charcoal grill good and hot. Three minutes one side and two minutes on the b-side. Darned good eating.

(this is my wifes recipe) 2 cans of tuna in water(drained)1/2 cup or desired finely chopped onion,1or 2 roma tomatoes finely chopped,cilantro finely chopped,(as much as you desire) 1 finely chopped jalapeno (fresh), mayonnaise, mustard as desired, dill relish 1 tbsp, 1 tbsp olives finely chopped, 2 boiled eggs, mix all ingredients together. Goes great with crackers or in a sandwich!

You can make a decent glaze by reducing equal parts OJ and balsamic vinegar, then stir in ginger to taste. Pan sear your tuna for a couple minutes each side, just seasoned with sea salt. Drizzle with glaze, and serve.
