Slow Cooked Oven Tuna Steaks image

Saw this on Fast Food My Way by Jacques Pepin: this is excellent! The tuna comes out cooked very evenly rare through the whole steak! There's two choices for relishes; each makes enough relish for 2 steaks. You can alternately choose one and double the ingredients to use on all 4 tuna steaks.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 (6 ounce) center-cut tuna steaks (3/4-inch thick)
1 teaspoon olive oil
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1/4 cup red onion, chopped
1/4 cup kalamata olive, chopped
2 tablespoons capers
1/4 cup basil, chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1/4 cup diced sweet onion (such as Vidalia)
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
1/3 cup hot salsa
salt, to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200°F.
  • Rub the tuna steaks on both sides with the canola oil and sprinkle them with the salt and pepper.
  • Arrange the steaks on a serving plate, or on 4 dinner plates, and bake for about 20 minutes for rare. If you wish the fish cooked to medium, leave it in for a few more minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the salsas separately: combine all ingredients except olive oil, salt, and pepper in separate bowls.
  • Add salt (and pepper) and olive oil, making sure to coat.
  • Remove the tuna steaks from the oven and spoon the each sauce liberally over and around 2 tuna steaks. Serve immediately.
