SEARED TUNA STEAK | JAMIE OLIVER FISH & SEAFOOD RECIPE

When buying tuna you should look for meat that is evenly coloured, dark red and has a fine, tight grain free of large sinews. Generally you get better tuna in good fishmongers than in supermarkets, but sometimes the supermarkets get a good batch in, so keep your eyes peeled. There is a bit of a thing about it being fashionable to serve tuna pink; if you buy good-quality fresh tuna the last thing you want to do is cook it all the way through and make it taste like tinned tuna, so yes, good-quality fresh tuna should be served rare or very pink.

Total Time 15 minutes

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 small dried red chilli
1 tablespoon coriander seeds
½ a clove of garlic
1 good handful of fresh basil
1 good handful of fresh coriander
olive oil
1 lemon
4 x 225 g tuna steaks ideally 2cm thick, from sustainable sources

Steps:

1. Smash up the chilli and the coriander seeds in a pestle and mortar.
2. Peel and chop the garlic, pick and finely chop the herb leaves and add it all to the pestle and mortar with a drizzle of oil and lemon juice, to taste. Mix together, and season with sea salt and black pepper.
3. Lay out your tuna steaks on a tray, season both sides and rub all over with the herb mixture.
4. There are two nice ways to cook it: I prefer to cook it on a griddle pan or in a frying pan.
5. Your pan should be very, very hot. Put in the tuna and what you want to do is sear it so that it toasts, fries and browns (about 45 to 60 seconds on each side).
6. Once cooked, I like to rip the steaks in half and serve with salad and chips or boiled potatoes and a big wedge of lemon. It’s quite sexy sometimes with some marinated sun-dried tomatoes, olives, basil… The possibilities are endless.
