Soy Lime Marinated Grilled Tuna With Cucumber Salad Recipes

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, combine the cilantro, jalapeno, ginger, garlic, lime juice, soy sauce, sugar, salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Stir the ingredients together until well incorporated.
• Place a skillet over medium-high heat and coat with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season the tuna generously with salt and pepper. Lay the tuna in the hot oil and sear for 1 minute on each side to form a slight crust. Pour 1/2 of the cilantro mixture into the pan to coat the fish. Serve the seared tuna with the sliced avocado and the remaining cilantro sauce drizzled over the whole plate.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the soy sauce, lime juice, olive oil, garlic, ginger and brown sugar (makes 1 1/2 cups).
• Stir well.
• Pour half the mixture into a shallow dish large enough to fit the fish.
• Add the fish and marinate at room temperature 30 minutes or in the refrigerator 45 minutes.
• If refrigerating, remove the fish from the refrigerator 15 minutes before grilling.
• Meanwhile, cut the cucumbers in half lengthwise.
• Using a spoon, scoop out the seeds.
• Cut the cucumbers into 1/4-inch-thick slices crosswise (makes about 2 cups).
• Add the cucumbers, carrot, chile pepper, scallion and sesame seeds to the remaining marinade, and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Remove the fish to paper towels and discard the marinade in the dish.
• Pat the excess marinade from the tuna.
• With a pastry or barbecue brush, brush the fish with additional olive oil.
• On an outdoor grill or a grill pan over high heat, lightly brush the grates with olive oil (do not place the fish on the grill until the flames have subsided).
• Grill the fish 3 to 5 minutes on both sides for medium rare or 6 to 8 minutes for medium well.
• When slightly cooled, cut into thick slices.
• Meanwhile, mix the lettuce and herbs with the chilled marinade and transfer to a platter.
• Place the fish on top, and drizzle additional marinade over the fish.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a flat, shallow dish, combine the soy, rice vinegar, sambal, white and light green scallions, garlic and ginger. Add the tuna and roll around to get the marinade on all sides. Cover and let sit in the fridge for up to 2 hours, turning the tuna periodically.
• Remove the tuna from the fridge and let sit in the marinade outside of the fridge for 20 to 30 minutes.
• When the tuna has come to room temperature, remove it from the marinade. With a paper towel, gently remove some of the excess marinade.
• Coat a large saute pan with peanut oil and bring it to a VERY high heat. When the pan is VERY hot but not quite smoking, pull the pan off the heat and add the tuna to the pan. Return the pan to the heat and sear the tuna for 1 minute on each side.
• Remove the tuna from the pan, let rest for 4 to 5 minutes and slice into 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick slices. Sprinkle with the dark green sliced scallion tops.
• Serve immediately with a little extra soy on the side if desired.

Steps:

• Brush the tuna steaks with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the tuna steaks in a very hot saute pan and cook for only 1 minute on each side. Set aside on a platter.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, pepper, lime zest, wasabi, lime juice, soy sauce and hot sauce. Add the avocados to the vinaigrette.
• Cut the tuna in chunks and place it in a large bowl. Add the scallions and red onion and mix well. Pour the vinaigrette mixture over the tuna and carefully mix.

Steps:

• Arrange tuna in a single layer in a shallow dish.

• Drain the tuna and let it come to room temperature.
• Brush tuna all over with olive oil.
• Grill 3-6 mins on each side.
• Serve with pickled ginger and sliced scallions.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except tuna in a 1 gallon zipper bag. Squish together until well combined, then add tuna steaks. Seal and let marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature, or if longer, in the refrigerator.
• Preheat grill to 475. Grill approximately 3 minutes, turn, and cook an additional 2-3 minutes to desired doneness, basting while cooking.
• Transfer to plate and serve.

Steps:

• If fish steaks are large, cut into 6 serving pieces. In shallow glass or plastic dish or resealable food-storage plastic bag, mix remaining ingredients except lime wedges. Add fish; turn to coat. Cover dish or seal bag and refrigerate, turning fish once, at least 1 hour but no longer than 24 hours.
• Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat. Remove fish from marinade; reserve marinade. Cover and grill fish about 4 inches from medium heat 11 to 15 minutes, brushing 2 or 3 times with marinade and turning once, until fish flakes easily with fork. Discard any remaining marinade. Serve fish with lime wedges.

Steps:

• Cover the tuna steaks with soy sauce and let stand until ready to cook, but no longer than 1 hour. Combine vinaigrette ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until combined. Taste, adjust seasonings and set aside. Season tuna steaks with freshly ground pepper and salt. Heat grill to high heat. Cook tuna quickly so the outside browns and the inside remains a reddish-pink - about 1 to 2 minutes per side, depending on thickness of tuna. Transfer tuna to cutting board and slice thinly. Divide the greens among four plates. Arrange sliced tuna in a fan pattern over the greens and drizzle with wasabi-lime vinaigrette. Garnish with sprouts. Makes 4 servings

• Meanwhile, in small bowl, mix all sauce ingredients; refrigerate.
• Set oven control to broil. Spray broiler pan rack with cooking spray. Remove fish from marinade; discard marinade. Place fish on rack in broiler pan. Broil with tops 4 inches from heat 7 to 10 minutes, turning once, until fish flakes easily with fork. Serve with sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler if using.
• Wash and dry tuna, and squeeze juice from lime over both sides. Let tuna sit no more than 20 minutes.
