AHI TUNA AND BABY SHRIMP CEVICHE W/PAPAYA SALAD AND COCONUT



Ahi Tuna and Baby Shrimp Ceviche W/Papaya Salad and Coconut image

Ceviche is a non-cook prep method, letting the fish marinate and cook in citrus juices. The original recipe calls for Hamachi - also know as Amberjack - but this fish is not recognized by food.com. If you find it, use 1/2 cup of each type of fish. The ceviche needs to marinate for 1 hour so please plan ahead. Time for marinating is included in prep time.

AHI TUNA WITH VEGETABLE STIR-FRY



Ahi Tuna With Vegetable Stir-Fry image

I've had this recipe at the Canoe House Restaurant and it is wonderful. Here's a little bit about the dish and the restaurant. At the Mauna Lani Bay Hotel on Hawaii's Kohala coast, CanoeHouse chef Pat Saito uses ono steaks (a type of mackerel) for this dish. Ahi tuna, which is easier to find, makes a good substitute. Saito serves the fish with wasabi-laced mashed potatoes.

EASIEST AHI TUNA EVER



Easiest Ahi Tuna Ever image

I came up with this the first time I purchased an ahi tuna steak to make at home. For me, less is more when it comes to ahi because I really love the flavor of the fish. This recipe is super easy and it makes a great presentation over a baby spinach salad.

Categories     Tuna

Time 10m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

8 ounces ahi tuna steaks, sushi grade
2 -3 tablespoons peppercorns, cracked
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt

Steps:

  • Rub the steak with one tbs of the olive oil.
  • Put the peppercorns on a plate and press the tuna steak into the peppercorns until it is coated.
  • Sprinkle the steak with salt to taste.
  • Heat the other tbs of olive oil in a non-stick pan on medium high heat.
  • Cook the steak 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Slice the steak into 1/4" slices and serve over salad or rice.
  • Note: If you do not care for raw or rare fish this recipe is not for you. Cooking a tuna steak for 2-3 minutes per side will leave the middle quite rare, and barely warm. You could cook the fish longer until it is well done, but then you would basically spending a lot of money on a cut of fish that is meant to be served rare or raw. (IMHO!).

HEALTHY TUNA SALAD OR TUNA CEVICHE



Healthy Tuna Salad or Tuna Ceviche image

This recipe has been called both tuna salad but it really has little that resembles the typical tuna salad. My friends have also called it tuna ceviche and it would be a little more accurate at describing what this is. Is really healthy and it goes well with crackers or on tostadas. I make very little because I'm the only one who eats it so feel free to double or triple the recipe for bigger parties.

BAY SCALLOP, SHRIMP, AND AHI TUNA CEVICHE IN TORTILLA CUPS



Bay Scallop, Shrimp, and Ahi Tuna Ceviche in Tortilla Cups image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Peanut oil, for frying
4 to 6 small, thin corn tortillas, about 8-inches in diameter
1/2 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/2 pound fresh baby bay scallops, side muscles removed
1/2 pound ahi tuna, diced
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 to 4 tablespoons fresh lime juice
6 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, plus 6 sprigs for garnish
1/2 medium red onion, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
1 medium, ripe tomato, peeled, seeded, and cut into 1/4-inch cubes
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a large, heavy saucepan, heat 5 to 6 inches of oil to 375 degrees F. Fry the tortillas, 1 by 1, in the hot oil until they are soft, about 10 seconds and drain on paper towels. Reserve, covered, in a warm spot. Heat wire "potato nest" baskets in the hot oil for several seconds, or until they are very hot. Fit a soft tortilla into the bottom basket and place the smaller basket on top of the tortilla. Immerse the baskets in the hot oil and cook until the tortilla is crispy and golden brown. Remove the tortilla cup from the basket and invert on paper towels to drain. Repeat the procedure with the other tortillas. (If you don't have a potato nest basket, you can also lay the tortillas 1 by 1 on the surface of the hot oil, then immediately push the center to the bottom with a small, empty tin can, thus creating a free form cup. Be sure to use tongs and heat resistant gloves to protect yourself.)
  • Cut the shrimp into piece the same size as the bay scallops. Refrigerate the shrimp, ahi, and scallops separately.
  • In a bowl, mix together the olive oil, lime juice, cilantro, red onion, and tomato and add salt and pepper, to taste. Add the seafood to this mixture and marinate, in the refrigerator, for 15 minutes to 45 minutes.
  • Place the tortilla cups on plates. Divide the ceviche among the cups and garnish with sprigs of cilantro.

TEDDY'S MOMMY'S PAN SEARED AHI TUNA WITH WASABI SAUCE



Teddy's Mommy's Pan Seared Ahi Tuna With Wasabi Sauce image

This is a combination of two recipes I found while looking around on the internet. One didn't have the sesame seeds and one had the sauce I wanted. So I mixed ideas. If your tuna isn't bright red and it flakes apart you won't want to use it for this dish. I am finding if it isn't the right color and isn't fresh it does not taste right. I have purchased steaks in individual plastic packs that have been pre-frozen from the fish counter with good results. In the picture you see it with a vegetable it is Recipe #91301.

Time 30m

Yield 2 steaks, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 ahi tuna steaks, 1/2 lb, 1-inch thick
1/2 cup white sesame seeds, toasted
1 tablespoon coriander seed, crushed (or 1/2 tablespoon coriander powder)
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon oil (vegetable, corn, canola, etc.)
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons wasabi paste
1/3 cup soy sauce (I use reduced sodium)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon dry sherry
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh gingerroot, minced
4 green onions, thinly sliced
1 cup daikon radish, grated use large holes on cheese grater

Steps:

  • Grate Daikon radish first, prep two plates with the radish laid out in a thin layer large enought to place a tuna steak on, leave out so it can get to room temperature (it isn't as good cold).
  • Mix together all sauce ingredients and set them aside.
  • Rinse tuna under cold water and pat dry.
  • Place sesame seeds, coriander, salt, and pepper into a bowl large enough to dip the steaks into. Mix the ingredients well.
  • Dip both sides of steaks into spice mix pressing down lightly to help the spices stick to the steaks.
  • Warm sesame, and regular oil in deep 10" (I use a non-stick) frypan over medium high heat(gas 8) until they're shimmery.
  • Carefully place both steaks into oil.
  • Keep an eye on the side of the steaks, when they start to slightly brown turn them over and brown the other side.
  • When done transfer steaks to cutting board and slice into 1/2" strips.
  • Then place on beds of daikon radish and pour half of sauce over each steak.
  • I usually serve this with a side of jasmine rice, or my recipe for wasabi mashed potatoes.

Ahi Tuna and Baby Shrimp Ceviche with Papaya Salad and Coconut

Ceviche is a beloved seafood dish that has been enjoyed throughout Latin America for centuries. It typically consists of raw fish or shellfish marinated in citrus juice and flavored with herbs and vegetables. A popular variation is the ahi tuna and baby shrimp ceviche, which pairs well with a refreshing papaya salad and coconut.
Ahi Tuna and Baby Shrimp Ceviche
To prepare the ceviche, thinly slice fresh ahi tuna and baby shrimp and marinate them in a mixture of lime and lemon juice. Add finely chopped red onion, garlic, cilantro, jalapeno peppers, and salt to taste. Let the mixture marinade in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, until the seafood is "cooked" by the acid in the citrus juice.
Papaya Salad
The papaya salad serves as an excellent side dish that balances the acidity of the ceviche. To make it, cut ripe papaya into bite-sized pieces and add thinly sliced cucumber, red onion, and bell pepper. Toss with a dressing made from lime juice, fish sauce, brown sugar, and chopped cilantro.
Coconut
The addition of coconut adds texture and flavor to the dish. One way to incorporate coconut into the recipe is to add toasted coconut flakes to the ceviche and salad. Alternatively, you can use coconut milk to make a creamy sauce to serve alongside the dish. Overall, the ahi tuna and baby shrimp ceviche with papaya salad and coconut highlights the fresh and bright flavors of seafood and tropical fruits. It's a dish that's sure to impress your guests with its unique combination of flavors and textures.
When it comes to creating dishes that are both tasty and healthy, the ahi tuna and baby shrimp ceviche with papaya salad and coconut recipes come to mind. These recipes involve the use of fresh ingredients to create unique flavor combinations that will tantalize your taste buds. Here are some valuable tips that will help you make the best of your ahi tuna and baby shrimp ceviche with papaya salad and coconut recipes. Preparing Ahi Tuna The key to making a perfect ahi tuna ceviche is to choose the right type of fish. Fresh ahi tuna is the best choice as it ensures that you have the right texture and flavor. When selecting ahi tuna, ensure that it is firm and has no fishy odor. Once you have your fish, rinse it with cold water, pat dry, and then cut it into ¼ inch cubes. For added flavor, marinate the fish in a mixture of lime and lemon juice for about one hour before adding the remaining ingredients. Using Baby Shrimp When it comes to baby shrimp, you want to make sure they are fresh and pre-cooked. Start by rinsing the shrimp well and then pat them dry before adding them to the ahi tuna mixture. Ensure that the shrimp are well-cooked and do not overcook them, as they will become rubbery and lose their flavor. Adding Vegetables To give your ahi tuna and baby shrimp ceviche a crunchy texture, you can add celery, cucumber, and red onions to the mixture. It is best to chop the vegetables into small dices and add them to the ceviche mixture immediately after cutting them to retain their crunchiness. Preparing Papaya Salad The papaya salad adds a unique flavor to the ahi tuna and baby shrimp ceviche. To prepare the papaya salad, you need to choose a ripe papaya. A ripe papaya is yellow to orange and does not have any green spots or bruises. Cut the papaya, remove the seeds, and then cut it into thin slices. You can then combine the sliced papaya with chopped mint, cilantro, and red chilies to make the salad. When making the salad, ensure that you use fresh ingredients to give it a unique flavor. Adding Coconut Coconut is an excellent ingredient to add to the ahi tuna and baby shrimp ceviche. It adds a tropical flavor to the dish and also enhances its nutritional value. You can either use freshly grated coconut or unsweetened desiccated coconut. Use coconut in moderation, as too much of it can be overpowering. Presentation The presentation of your dish is crucial in making it appetizing. You can serve your ahi tuna and baby shrimp ceviche in a coconut shell or a small clear glass bowl to showcase the different layers of the dish. You can also add a garnish of fresh herbs or thinly sliced vegetables on top of the dish to make it more visually appealing. Conclusion Making ahi tuna and baby shrimp ceviche with papaya salad and coconut recipes is a great way to indulge in a healthy and flavorful meal. By following these valuable tips, you will be able to create a dish that is visually appealing, full of flavor, and healthy. Remember to use fresh ingredients, chop your vegetables into small dices, and cook your shrimp correctly to make the best of your recipe. Finally, present your dish in an eye-catching manner, and enjoy your dish with friends and family.
