Tuna Tataki Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Peppers

    Slice the red and yellow bell peppers into thin strips. Grill them on a preheated grill or grill pan until they are slightly charred and tender. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Tuna

    Season the fresh tuna steak with salt and black pepper on both sides. Heat olive oil in a skillet over high heat and sear the tuna for about 1-2 minutes on each side, until the outside is seared but the inside remains rare. Remove from heat and let it rest for a minute.

  3. 3

    Slice the Tuna

    Using a sharp knife, thinly slice the seared tuna steak against the grain into bite-sized pieces.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Citrus Dressing

    In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, lemon juice, and finely chopped serrano chili to create a citrus dressing.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Dish

    On a serving plate, arrange the grilled peppers and tuna slices. Drizzle the citrus dressing over the top and garnish with chopped cilantro.
