There's a delicious balance between sweet and spicy in my tuna dish. An aromatic rub on the tuna combines with a drizzle of of a thin orange sauce to create a dynamic taste sensation. Ingredients:
1/2 teaspoon chinese five-spice powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
4 tuna steaks (6 ounces each) |
1 tablespoon canola oil |
1/4 cup orange juice |
2 green onions, thinly sliced |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce |
2 teaspoons rice vinegar |
1 teaspoon brown sugar |
1/4 teaspoon minced fresh gingerroot |
Directions:
1. Combine the five-spice powder, salt and cayenne; sprinkle over tuna steaks. In a large skillet, cook tuna in oil over medium heat for 2-3 minutes on each side for medium-rare or until slightly pink in the center; remove and keep warm.
2. Combine the orange juice, onions, lemon juice, soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar and ginger; pour into skillet. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until slightly thickened. Serve with tuna. Yield: 4 servings.
