    Ginger Tuna


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    4 1" Thick Tuna Steaks
    1/2 ts Salt
    1/4 ts Black Pepper
    3 tb Olive Oil
    4 tb Butter
    4 cl Garlic, chopped
    1 tb Grated Fresh Gingerroot
    1/8 ts Red Pepper Flakes
    2 ts Grated Lemon Zest
    3 tb Chopped Shallots
    1/2 c White Wine
    2 tb Chopped Italian Parsley

    Recipe



    Sprinkle the tuna steaks with 1/4 teaspoon salt and the pepper. Heat the
    olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat until sizzling, about
    2 minutes. Add the tuna steaks and cook for 2 minutes per side. The steaks
    will be well-browned on the outside but still raw inside. Transfer to
    a plate and cover with foil. Set aside.

    Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in the same pan set on high heat. Add the
    garlic, ginger, red pepper flakes, lemon zest, and shallots. Cook for 1
    minute. Stir in the wine, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of
    the pan. Add the parsley and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook until
    reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the
    remaining butter until it's completely melted. Place the tuna on serving
    plates and top with the sauce.
