Grilled Tuna with Parsley-Caper Sauce

Servings:4

Don’t be afraid of the anchovy in this tangy, verdant sauce; it adds deep umami flavor without being overtly fishy.

Preparation

  • On a cutting board, chop and mash together the lemon zest, garlic, pepper flakes, and 1/8 tsp. kosher salt to form a loose paste. Transfer the paste to a bowl. Whisk in the lemon juice, anchovies, and capers, then whisk in the oil until combined. Stir in the parsley, and set aside at room temperature while you grill the tuna.
  • Prepare a medium-high (400°F to 475°F) gas- or charcoal-grill fire, or heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush the tuna with oil, and season with kosher salt and pepper. Grill 2-1/2 minutes per side for medium rare. Serve topped with the sauce and flaky sea salt, and lemon wedges on the side.

    Great recipe! We already made twice. I follow the sauce recipe exactly, for tuna steaks we grilled then only 1-1/2 minutes per side.
    Flavors of the sauce go with grilled tuna amazingly

    This was so vibrant and delicious--perfect for dull winter nights. I threw all sauce ingredients in mini food processor--came out great. Was fantastic on grilled tuna, but could see using this sauce on all kinds of fish or shrimp. Will make again!

    这道菜是很棒的! !我炒鱼in a cast iron skillet instead of putting it on the grill- but the result is the same. Light, flaky, flavorful fish! My husband hates anchovies (or so he thinks) but after the first time I made this, he actually asked for more sauce! I've made it many times since and he still doesn't know our little secret. ;) The amount of flavors you get in this dish, the sheer satisfaction, and the fulfillment of eating a healthy meal is what keeps us coming back for more!
