Anchovy-Grilled Tuna Steaks

 

Ingredients

4 tuna steaks
parsley sprigs
6 anchovy fillets
2 tablespoon milk
6 tablespoon butter
1 drop Tabasco sauce
pepper to taste

 

Pre-heat the grill to high heat. Oil the grill rack and place each tuna steak to ensure an even heat. Place a small knob of Anchovy Butter (divide a quarter of the mixture in four) on each steak. Grill for 4 minutes.

 

Turn the tuna steaks and place another quarter of the butter among the steaks. Grill on the second side 4 minutes. Reduce the heat and allow to cook for a further 3 minutes, less if the tuna steaks are thin. Serve with a neatly arranged pat of anchovy butter on top of each tuna steak. Garnish with parsley sprigs and lemon wedges.

 

Anchovy Butter: Soak all the anchovy fillets in milk. Mash in a bowl with a wooden spoon until creamy. Cream all ingredients together and chill.

 

Serves 4.
