 Grilled Tuna with Citrus Salsa

 

Orange-pepper salsa is a terrific match for grilled tuna!
 

2 medium 

 

oranges, peeled and diced (be sure to cut off all white pith)

 

1 red 

 

bell pepper, chopped (seeds removed)

 

½ cup 

 

diced red onion

 

¼ cup 

 

torn fresh mint leaves

 

2 Tbs 

 

red wine vinegar

 

 

 

sea salt and fresh ground pepper to taste

 

4 fresh 

 

tuna steaks (6-8 oz. each)

 

1 tsp 

 

ground coriander seed

 

 

1

To prepare salsa, in medium bowl mix together oranges, pepper, onion, mint and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.

2

Heat your grill to high. Oil the grates generously with vegetable oil (not Pam), and let heat up. Rub tuna with a bit of oil, coriander, salt and pepper. Place on grill and cook 4-6 minutes, turning just once. It will still be pink in the center.

3

Garnish with salsa.
