Description

This dish brings to mind windswept beaches, balmy evenings, and Jimmy Buffet songs. Tender tuna steaks pan-grilled to perfection, and adorned with a cantaloupe salsa that will have you singing “Margaritaville” out loud.

Ingredients

  • 2 whole Tuna Steaks, About 6 Oz Each
  • ½ teaspoons Sea Salt
  • ½ teaspoons Fresh Ground Black Pepper
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 2 cups Cubed Cantaloupe
  • ½ cups Chopped Vidalia Onion
  • 1 whole Jalapeno, Seeded And Quartered
  • ⅛ cups Fresh Cilantro
  • 1 whole Lime, Juiced

Preparation

Season tuna steaks with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet (I use cast iron) over medium-high heat with the olive oil. When the skillet is hot, cook the tuna on one side for 5 minutes, then turn it over. Cook for another 3 to 5 minutes until done.

While the tuna is cooking, put cantaloupe, onion, jalapeno, lime juice, and cilantro into a food processor. Pulse a few times to chop everything up coarsely.

When the tuna steaks are done, put them on a serving platter. Garnish with the prepared cantaloupe salsa on top.

* You can control the heat in this by reducing the amount of jalapeno you add.
