Best Tuna Steak With Chilli Lime Recipes

TUNA STEAK WITH CHILLI LIME

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl add the juice of a lime, half as much olive oil, a teaspoon of chilli and salt. Mix well and leave to one side.
• Heat a griddle pan on the stove to a medium heat. Coat each tuna steak with spray oil and place on the griddle.
• Turn the fish every minute or so until the tuna starts to lose the raw pink colour. Griddle until the fish is cooked all the way through. I like my tuna well done but it can be served pink in the centre.
• Once you are satisfied the fish is cooked to your tastes, put on serving plates and pour the chilli and lime dressing over the fish. Serve with a rice, potatoes or bread and a large mixed salad.

CHILI-LIME SEARED AHI TUNA RECIPE WITH QUINOA

Steps:

• Cook the quinoa according to the package instructions.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the chili sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, and olive oil. Put the tuna steaks in a large zip-top bag, pour in the chili sauce mixture, and marinate for at least 10 minutes or in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours.
• In a skillet on the stovetop, melt the butter over medium heat. Discard the marinade and add the marinated tuna steaks to the skillet and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until a slight crust forms on the bottom. Flip and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on the second side.
• Divide the tuna among four plates and spoon the quinoa alongside. Garnish with the cilantro and sesame seeds and serve, with lime wedges alongside for squeezing over the top.

GRILLED GINGER-LIME TUNA STEAKS

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.
