Madiera Tuna Recipe
Recipe Type:
Tuna,
Seafood,
Cast-Iron Pan
Yields:
4 servings
Prep time:
10 min
Cook time: 3 min
Ingredients:
4
tuna steaks (3/4 to 1-inch thick, about 6 ounces each)
1 cup freshly-squeezed
orange juice
1/8 teaspoon celery salt
1/8 teaspoon onion salt
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 cup all-purpose
flour
Salt to taste
Extra-virgin olive oil
4 tablespoons soy sauce
1/3 cup Madiera
wine
1 cup
heavy cream
1/2 tablespoon horseradish or to taste
Preparation:
Rinse the tuna steaks and pat dry with paper towels. In the refrigerator, marinate the tuna steaks in the orange juice for 3 hours or overnight.
In a small bowl, combine celery salt, onion salt, white pepper, flour, and salt. Remove the tuna steaks from the orange juice; dust with flour mixture.
Using a heavy bottomed sauté pan or a
cast-iron pan, warm the olive oil. Increase the heat to high and place the tuna in the pan. Sear for 1 minute, then turn over carefully, reducing the heat to medium. Sear the other side for 1 more minute until medium rare.
(Do not overcook the tuna or the meat will become dry
and lose its flavor.) Remove tuna steaks from pan and keep
warm. Reduce heat to medium-low.
Add soy sauce, Madiera, cream and horseradish; stir until heated thoroughly. Remove from heat and pour sauce over tuna steaks. Serve immediately.
Makes 4 servings.
