Ingredients
- Tuna Bites
- 1 pound piece good quality tuna steak
- 2 TBS grapeseed or olive oil
- 3 TBS Paul Prudhomme Seafood Magic used above or Blackened Seafood Magic or whichever blackening seasoning you enjoy best
- Aioli
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 TBS relish
- Few dashed Worcestershire sauce
- A squeeze of fresh lemon juice
- A dash or two of Cayenne pepper
Instructions
- Lightly coat your tuna in a bit of oil.
- Cut the tuna steak into bite sized cubes.
- Gently pres tuna cubes down into the seasoning mixture and coat all sides with it.
- Place coated tuna pieces on a plate.
- Heat 1 ½ - 2 TBS of oil in a non-stick griddle or skillet until very hot but not smoking.
- Place tuna pieces into the pan and cook over high med-heat until each side of the cube is cooked and golden brown/blackened.
- You need to move quick so the tuna doesn't cook all the way through. Total cook time should not exceed 2-3 minutes if you still want your tuna pink inside.
- If you want it rarer, you need to cook it even less.
- Remove each tuna piece (based on size) as soon as it is done and plate.
- Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and mix until smooth and creamy.
- Eat the tuna alone or with some of the sauce...either way, enjoy!
Notes
Nutritional calculation is calculated assuming you use all of the sauce which I am sure you will not. So calories are less.
