Seared Tuna with Lemony Potatoes
Tuna goes further—and is simpler to eat—when it’s chunked and mixed with potatoes.
This dish is perfect for outdoor dining. Tossing in a tablespoon of capers would be a lovely addition.
Ingredients
-
2 (8-oz) tuna steaks
-
1/4 cup olive oil
-
1 tablespoon hot sauce, such as Tabasco
-
2 cloves garlic, minced
-
1/2 teaspoon salt
-
Coarsely ground black pepper
-
12 medium round red potatoes, cut into halves and boiled until tender
-
Finely grated rind and juice of 1 lemon
-
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Instructions
- Rinse tuna steaks and pat dry. Combine olive oil, hot sauce and garlic in a measuring cup. Pour half the mixture into a shallow baking pan, reserving remaining sauce. Add tuna to pan and let stand 1 hour, turning halfway though the marinating time.
- Preheat grill to high.
- Remove tuna from marinade and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Discard marinade. Grill 3 to 4 minutes per side, until desired degree of doneness.
- Place hot boiled potatoes in a bowl. Break tuna into chunks and add to potatoes. Add lemon rind and juice, parsley and reserved sauce. Toss and serve.
