TUNA MADEIRA STYLE (BIFES DE ATUM A MADEIRENSE)



Tuna Madeira Style (Bifes De Atum a Madeirense) image

From Jean Anderson, a lovely way to make tuna--though not the fashionable 'seared-on-the-outside/raw-on-the-inside' style of tuna. This requires you to plan ahead, as the fish should marinate 24 hours before you cook it. You can do the grilling over charcoal, on a gas grill or using a stovetop or George Foreman type grill.
