Seared Tuna on Spicy Risotto

This is amazing, you have to try!!  The perfectly marinated fresh tasting tuna really compliment the spiciness of the risotto – DELICIOUS!!

Serves 1

Ingredients

the Tuna

1 lime, juice only

1 garlic clove, peeled & crushed

2 tbsp olive oil

Salt & pepper, freshly ground

200g fresh tuna steak

the Risotto

2 tbsp olive oil

150g risotto rice

3 spring onions, chopped

3 medium mushrooms of your choice, chopped

Pinch of chilli flakes (a big pinch if you like it spicy)

Pinch of curry powder (again a big pinch if you like spice)

100ml white wine

400ml chicken stock

Salt & pepper freshly ground

the Garnish

6-8 cherry tomatoes

2 tbsp olive oil

Salt & pepper freshly ground

½ lime, to garnish

Method

1.  Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/Gas mark 6.

2.  For the tuna, mix together the lime juice, garlic, olive oil and salt & pepper in a shallow dish.  Add the tuna and turn over several times to coat in the marinade.  Place in the refrigerator until required.

3.  For the risotto heat the oil in a wok until it is smoking, add the risotto rice, spring onions and mushrooms and fry for 4-5 minutes.  Add the chilli flakes, curry powder and wine and bring to the boil, when the wine has been absorbed slowly add the stock.  Bring the mixture to a simmer and gradually add the stock continuously stirring.  At this point you may as well pour yourself a glass of wine and put some music on as you have some stirring to do – this should take 18-20 minutes until the rice is creamy and tender.

4.  In the meantime for the garnish, place the tomatoes into a roasting tin, drizzle over the oil and season.  Roast in the oven for 6-8 minutes.

5.  Sear the marinated tuna in a hot chargrill pan for 1 minute on each side or until browned all over and pink in the middle.  Remove from the pan to rest.

6.  To serve, spoon the spicy risotto into a shallow bowl and place the tuna steak on top.  Arrange the roasted tomatoes over the tuna and garnish with half a lime.

Cooks Tips

v  If you like things spicy taste the risotto when you are adding the stock and keeping on adding small pinches until you reach your required taste.
