Best Grilled Tuna With Roasted Red Bell Pepper Sauce Recipes

GRILLED TUNA WITH RED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Combine the lemon juice, 4 tablespoons olive oil, rosemary, garlic and ground pepper in a shallow dish. Add the tuna and turn to coat well on all sides. Let marinate for 1 hour, turning tuna from time to time.
• Preheat a grill or broiler. Brush the remaining teaspoon of olive oil over both sides of the pepper halves. Grill or broil the tuna and peppers until the tuna is charred on the outside but still pink in the center, about 4 minutes per side, and until the peppers are crisp-tender, about 3 minutes per side. Divide among 4 plates, season the tuna with salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.

TUNA AND RED PEPPER SAUCE

EASY GRILLED TUNA

Steps:

• Place tuna steaks with Italian dressing in a bowl, coating both sides; marinate in refrigerator for 20 minutes.
• Preheat outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Grill tuna on the preheated grill until tuna lightens in color but retains a thin line of pink in the center, about 5 minutes on each side.

TUNA WITH RED BELL PEPPER SAUCE

Steps:

• Prepare the sauce first. Place the peppers and garlic on a sheet of foil on an oven tray and place under a preheated broiler, 2 1/2 to 6 1/2 inches from the broiler. Turn the peppers until their skins are black and blistered all over. Remove the garlic when it feels soft. Alternatively-and more easily-roast both the peppers and garlic in the hottest oven for about 30 minutes (take out the garlic much sooner, when it feels soft), or until the peppers are soft and their skins blistered and blackened, turning them once after 15 minutes.
• To loosen their skins further, put the peppers in a strong plastic bag, twist it shut, and leave for 10 to 15 minutes. Another old way that has the same effect is to put them in a pan with a tight-fitting lid for the same length of time. When the peppers are cool enough to handle, peel them and remove and discard the stems and seeds. Peel the roasted garlic cloves.
• Blend the roasted peppers and garlic in a food processor with the rest of the sauce ingredients.
• Heat the oil in a large, preferably nonstick, skillet. Put in the tuna steaks and cook over high heat for less than 1 minute on each side, sprinkling lightly with salt. The time depends on the thickness of the piece. Cut into a steak with a pointed knife to test it; it should be soft and still pink inside.
• Serve the tuna steaks on top of the sauce, sprinkled with the chopped parsley.

GRILLED YELLOWFIN TUNA WITH OVEN-ROASTED PEPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat grill to high heat.
• Rub olive oil over each steak and season with salt and pepper. Transfer steaks to grill and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side for rare. Place in the refrigerator to make the slicing easier.
• Serve with Oven-Roasted Peppers.
• Over a gas flame, or under the broiler, roast peppers until the skin blisters and turns black, turning with tongs so they get evenly charred. Place the peppers in a bowl and cover with plastic for 15 to 20 minutes. Uncover, peel off the blackened skin, remove the core, and discard the seeds and ribs. Cut the peppers into thin strips and place in a clean bowl. Add the fresh herbs, shallots, garlic, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar and toss to combine.

Steps:

• If using tuna steaks, prepare grill.
• Season tuna steaks with salt and pepper and grill on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until just cooked through. (Alternatively, tuna steaks may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.) Transfer tuna to a platter and cool. In a large sealable plastic bag combine lemon juice, thyme, and 1/4 cup oil and add grilled tuna. Marinate grilled tuna, chilled, turning bag occasionally, at least 1 hour and up to 1 day. If using canned tuna, drain tuna and in a bowl stir together with lemon juice, thyme, 1/4 cup oil, and salt and pepper to taste.
• In a bowl toss together parsley, onion, and remaining 2 tablespoons oil and season with salt and pepper. Pat roasted peppers dry. Halve focaccia horizontally and layer one half with peppers, tuna, capers, and parsley salad.

Cut sandwiches in half diagonally and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Chill sandwiches at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.

• While grill heats, cut peppers lengthwise into quarters, discarding stems and seeds. Trim ends so that quarters lie flat.
• Sprinkle tuna all over with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Cook tuna and peppers on lightly oiled grill rack, turning over once, until tuna is pink only in center and peppers are just tender, 4 to 6 minutes total (peppers may take longer than tuna). Transfer tuna and peppers as cooked to a serving plate.
• While tuna cooks, whisk together lemon juice, mustard, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl, then add oil in a slow stream, whisking until emulsified. Whisk in capers and parsley.
• Serve tuna topped with peppers and caper vinaigrette.

GRILLED TUNA WITH ROASTED RED BELL PEPPER SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine 2 tablespoons olive oil with Thai seasoning in a medium mixing bowl and whisk to blend well. Add tuna and toss gently until completely coated. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate 3 hours. Prepare charcoal grill. Grill tuna fillets 5 minutes on each side. Set aside and keep warm. If a charcoal grill is not available, preheat oven broiler, place tuna fillets, coated with the leftover marinade, on a thick pan and cook 5 to 6 minutes. To test for doneness, carefully cut into the middle of the fish with a small, thin knife. It should be cooked through but still very moist. For sauce, heat olive oil in a medium skillet over high heat. Add garlic and sauté 1 minute. Add pepper and tomato purees, fish sauce, and white pepper and cook, stirring constantly, 3 minutes. Add cream and bring to boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer 4 minutes. Divide fillet among 4 serving plates, smoothing over bottom of each plate. Place 1 tuna fillet in center of each plate, garnish with basil, and serve.
