Tuna Teriyaki Stir Fry Recipes

TERIYAKI TUNA

Steps:

• Pour the teriyaki sauce into a shallow dish or bowl, and place tuna steaks in the sauce to marinate. Cover, and allow to marinate for about 45 minutes at room temperature. The steaks will cook more evenly if they are not cold.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place tuna steaks in the hot oil, and pour in the teriyaki sauce. Squeeze juice from the lemon over the steaks, and sprinkle with sesame seeds. When the bottom is light brown, flip the steaks, and cook until browned on the other side. The center will still be slightly red. Season with sea salt and pepper.
• Place the tuna steaks onto serving plates, and garnish with grated carrots. Serve the pan drippings as a dipping sauce.

TRADITIONAL YELLOWTAIL OR TUNA TERIYAKI

Steps:

• To prepare the fish: Salt the fish steaks well and set aside at room temperature for 15 to 25 minutes.
• To make the teriyaki sauce: In a small pot, bring the sake, mirin and soy sauce to a boil and stir in the sugar. Turn off the heat and set aside.
• To cook the fish: Using a large sauté pan, get the peanut oil almost to a smoking point over high heat.
• Run the edge of a butter knife along the skin side of the fish steaks, scraping off any moisture.
• Turn the heat down to medium-high and lay the fish steaks―skin-side down―in the pan.
• You might need to press down on them with a spatula to keep the skin from arching up. It'll relax in a minute or so.
• Cook the fish 2/3 of the way on the skin side, then flip. It should come off easily, as the skin will be crispy. If you have skinless pieces of fish, just cook it 2/3 on one side.
• Pour in the teriyaki sauce and turn the heat down to medium. Spoon some on the skin side of the steak and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, longer if the steak is very thick.
• Flip the steak one more time to set the teriyaki glaze. Gently shake the pan so it doesn't stick. Cook for 1 minute.
• Serve immediately with steamed rice and a salad.

TERIYAKI GINGER TUNA SKEWERS

Steps:

• Soak bamboo skewers in water for 30 minutes to 1 hour. (This will keep them from burning later). Mix all marinade ingredients together in a bowl. Submerge tuna cubes in marinade, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat a grill or grill pan to high.
• Remove tuna from marinade and skewers from water, and thread tuna onto skewers. Place skewers on the edges of the grill with the longest part of the stick hanging off the edge away from the fire. Stay close by and turn the sticks by hand to keep from burning. Brochettes are done in just 3 to 4 minutes.
• Sprinkle with sesame seeds before serving.

TUNA TERIYAKI STIR-FRY

Steps:

• Prepare the rice using the package directions, omitting the salt and margarine. Cover to keep warm. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the glaze ingredients. Set aside.
• In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat, swirling to coat the bottom. Cook the fish, garlic, and gingerroot for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the fish is golden brown on all sides (it will still be slightly pink inside), stirring constantly.
• Stir in the sugar snap peas, green onions, carrot, and bell pepper. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp, stirring constantly.
• Make a well in the center of the fish and vegetables. Pour in the glaze mixture. Simmer for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the glaze is thickened, stirring occasionally in the well only. Stir the fish and vegetables into the thickened glaze. Cook for 1 minute, or until the mixture is heated through, stirring constantly. Serve over the rice.
