Anyone have a good cold tuna appetizer recipe?

I am looking for a cold tuna appetizer. I have only 1 hour of time to prepare it.Anyone have a good cold tuna appetizer recipe?
tuna, mayo, rice, finely chopped onions (if you have scallions is better), finely chopped tomatoes (if you have cherry tomatoes just cut them in half and use it to decorate the appetizer).


Cook the rice. Mix it with all the other ingredients. Cover a pan with a non stick paper (aluminum or the transparent one) and put what you've just mixed there. Pop it in the fridge and when it's cold cut it in squares


Another option is to fill tomatoes with a mixture of rice, tuna and mayo. Believe me, those stuffed tomatoes are really good.Anyone have a good cold tuna appetizer recipe?

Tuna Balls - Polpette di tonno





This is really a really easy to make appetizer that can work as a main course too.


Serves: 4-8 Preparation time: 25 minutes





1-3/4 cup tuna fish packed in olive oil


1 cup ricotta cheese


1 egg


3/4 cup fresh ground parmesan


1/4 tsp. thyme


1 cup ground dry bread crumbs


salt to taste


oil to fry





In a large bowl mix the ricotta, egg, parmesan and thyme.





In a food processor blend the tuna until smooth. Drain the excess oil before blending.





Mix the tuna into the ricotta mix with a pinch of salt. Prepare a plate with the dry bread crumbs. Gently roll the tuna into one inch balls and then roll them in the bread crumbs.





Prepare a nonstick frying pan with olive oil. Fry them on both sides taking care when you turn them as they are very delicate. Place them a plate covered with paper towels to absorb the excess oil and let them cool a few minutes. .





This recipe will make around 30 to 40 balls depending on how big you make them. Take care when frying them as they will tend to fall apart otherwise. They make a delicate appetizer or you can serve them with salad as a main course.

Anyone have a tuna steak recipe so that I can cook and freeze it?

I have enough tuna to feed eight people, but I'm not having people over.





Anyone have a recipe that uses tuna steak, and that can be refrigerated or frozen without the tuna become hard, tough, and flavorless?





Thanks.Anyone have a tuna steak recipe so that I can cook and freeze it?
i don't recommend cooking it before you freeze it. why not freeze it first then defrost it when you need it? that' what i do, i buy packs of four and freeze what i dont use and defrost as necessary. as for a recipe, if you cook it in lemonjuice and a dash of mild chilli powder on each side the flavours are massive. just serve on some chunky sweet potato chips or oven wedges and salad with homemade vinegarette!!





hope this helps





pbxAnyone have a tuna steak recipe so that I can cook and freeze it?
You're better off freezing the steaks raw than cooking and freezing them. They'll get even more tough and have less flavor after they're cooked and frozen.

This is really easy to make.





Pan Seared Tuna.





Before cooking marinate with garlic, soy sauce, and little bit of sugar, and green tea (optional).





Cook it on a fry pan with a little bit of olive oil.





It should be on medium to medium high, and flip it when it's brown on side.
if you are going to use the stove top, get some cajun seasoning....





i am assuming that these are tuna fillets or steaks.....coat each side with the seasoning, cook in a pan at medium heat, on both sides for about 3 min each....the longer you cook each side the spicier it will get.....





this is commonly known as blackened....huge in louisiana
just do a little coarse black pepper


and olive oil that is the best fish you will ever eat it i love it.grill it a minute on each side best eaten when red inside..and not done.





live on the gulf and try to always eat it..:)


or wahoo..
simplest answer is just grill it, maybe use a little lemon pepper or some other light seasoning like dill weed, and it is yellow fin also known as ahi tuna not yellow fish
Marinade and then grill them.

2 tbsp. finely chopped onion


3 tbsp. butter (butter)


3 tbsp. all purpose flour


1/4 tsp. salt


1 1/4 c. milk


1/2 c. dairy sour cream


1 (6 1/2 - 7 oz.) can tuna, drained

Add tuna, wine and parsley. Heat through. Sprinkle with toasted almonds, if desired. Serve in pastry shells or spoon over hot butter toast points. Makes 4 servings.Help finding cream tuna recipe?
I would try a basic bechamel sauce. Use 1 tbs. each butter and flour (or cornstarch if you prefer) and combine in a heavy pan on medium heat until flour has had a chance to cook a bit so the starch doesn't have a raw flavor. Then add a cup of milk and cook through, whisking all the while, until the sauce thickens. Add a little salt, pepper, and nutmeg and you have your sauce. Then add your tuna, peas, etc. That should taste good.
My mom made creamed tuna on toast like that, too! I still love the taste of it, but prefer to have it on mashed potatoes. Here's how she, and I, make the creamed tuna:





3 tbl. butter


3 tbl. flour


salt to taste


1 陆 c. milk


6 oz. can tuna, drained





Melt butter in saucepan. Add flour and salt and blend till smooth. Add milk slowly, stirring rapidly to prevent lumping. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add the tuna and stir. Cook 1 minute more. Then serve on toast. (Or mashed potatoes.)





If you want to use cornstarch instead of flour, use half the amount (1 陆 tbl.), mix it with the cold milk before adding it to the hot butter, and you don't need to cook it as long.
That is the only recipe for creamed tuna I could find for ya hun.





1 (6 ounce) can tuna, drained


1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of celery soup


1 cup milk


8 slices bread


salt to taste


pepper to taste





In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, mix tuna and soup. Gradually stir in the milk. Cook 5 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.


Toast the bread. Pour equal amounts of the tuna mixture over each slice of toasted bread and season with salt and pepper to serve.

    *********************************





    There was quite a buzz going around the internet food community about 2 years ago about ';SUBWAY having the best tuna salad..........'; Well, it turns out that they were making it as simple (my credo!!) as you could,





    Tuna, salt and pepper and enough mayo to bind it together......





    I've come up with a rendition of that, but did a little research and didn't mess up the simplicity of things.......just a little different approach:





    1 6 oz can Solid Albacore Tuna in WATER


    1 6 oz can Solid Albacore Tuna in OIL


    1 6 oz can Chunk Light Tuna in WATER





    Drain the cans of tuna packed in water;


    Drain SOME of the oil from the tuna in oil





    In a medium mixing bowl, add all the tuna and enough Mayonnaise to bind the tuna together.....Add Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.......Cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Remove from fridge and let sit at room temp for 15 minutes.





    Now, why does this taste so good??? Albacore tuna in water can be quite dry, even though mayo is added.....Albacore tuna in oil can be just too darned oily. Chunk light is sometimes too fishy, so I came up with the idea through trial and error and found this to be the most acceptable (through many tasters whom I consider to have a sophisticated palet, yes, even for a basic tuna salad recipe...)
    add some green bellpepper and cut up pineapple... together with mayonnaise and salt and pepper...


    crunchy but delish!





    also, in regular tunasalad (tuna, mayo) you can add chopped tomatoes... it gives something very fresh...


    we always put sweet chili sauce, because once i didnt have tomatoes and i figured, the sauce is also red, so why not, and now my whole family does it...
    Not too much you can do with tuna, but try these tasty tips:





    Grate a peeled apple into the tuna. It takes away the fishy taste without changing other flavors.





    Or, grate a carrot into the tuna.





    Use good mayo, like Hellman's or Kraft's. Dice onions, celery and a squeeze of fresh lemon. Finish with some cilantro.
    i make it with tuna, miracle whip (or mayo), a little bit of mustard, pickles chopped, salt/pepper and a dash of garlic powder.


    mmmmmmmm.





    i'm not a fan of eggs/onions in mine, but to each his own.
    My house tuna salad





    Mayo


    Mustard (plain yellow)


    Salt


    Pepper


    FINEly chopped celery and dill pickles and a tiny bit of onion chopped too.
    I put eggs, green onion, sweet relish, lemon juice, drained crushed pineapple, salt, pepper, and mayo.
