Grilled Tuna With Sun Dried Tomato Olive Caper Relish Recipe Finecooking

Steps:

• Place tuna steaks with Italian dressing in a bowl, coating both sides; marinate in refrigerator for 20 minutes.
• Preheat outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Grill tuna on the preheated grill until tuna lightens in color but retains a thin line of pink in the center, about 5 minutes on each side.

Steps:

• Put sun-dried tomatoes into food processor with steel blade, and process about 30 seconds. Add olives, red onion, and capers, and process about 30 seconds more. Add all remaining ingredients and process about one minutes, or until ingredients are uniform size and well combined. Serve over grilled fish.

Steps:

• Heat 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add onions; sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; sauté until golden, about 3 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, basil, and capers. Simmer uncovered until mixture thickens, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat remaining 3 tablespoons oil in another heavy large skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper. Add fish to skillet and cook until light brown at edges but pink in center, about 3 minutes per side. Pour in tomato mixture. Simmer until fish is opaque in center, about 5 minutes longer. Serve fish immediately.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Remove 1/3 cup to a small bowl for basting; cover and refrigerate. Pour remaining marinade into a large resealable plastic bag; add tuna. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for up to 1 hour., Drain and discard marinade. Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Grill tuna, uncovered, over medium heat for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare or until slightly pink in the center, basting frequently with reserved marinade.

Steps:

• Place tuna steaks and olive oil in a large resealable plastic bag. Seal, and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Preheat the grill for medium heat. When coals are very hot, scatter a handful of hickory or mesquite wood chips over them for flavor.
• Lightly oil grill grate. Season tuna with salt and pepper, and cook on the preheated grill approximately 6 minutes, turning once. Transfer to a serving platter, and drizzle with freshly squeezed lime juice. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place tuna in shallow dish and sprinkle with oil, shallots, garlic, oregano and bay leaves, and crushed peppercorns. Let flavors merge 1 hour at room temperature, turning fish over several times.
• As fish marinates, soften butter in a small bowl. Using a spoon, work in lemon juice, chives and salt. Using a large knife, chop together capers and watercress until cut very fine. Work these into the soft butter. Form into 4 equal-size patties and refrigerate.
• Remove fish from the marinade, reserving marinade, and place on hot grill or in broiler and cook, allowing 10 minutes for every 1-inch thickness of fish. Turn over fish at midpoint.
• As tuna cooks, quickly saute reserved marinade in small saucepan until garlic is soft. Add tomatoes and corn and cook 3 minutes, or until corn is cooked through.
• To serve, divide tuna among 4 plates; spoon tomato-corn mixture onto one corner of fish and let it cascade onto plate. Place a pat of watercress butter on each piece of fish and garnish with a sprig of fresh oregano.

Steps:

• Pulse all ingredients together in a food processor until coarsely chopped.
