Grilled Ahi Tuna

Teenagers are gone, time to return to Senior Serious Meals.

Ahi Tuna, grilled zucchini and brown rice.

Make the brown rice first, it takes 40-45 minutes. Cook rice in chicken broth or any stock for more flavor.

Season Fresh Ahi Tuna with cajun spice, roll in sesame seeds, brush the zucchini with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. McCormick Cajun seasoning has one of the lowest salt contents. Be sure to read labels on premixed spices, they very often have a high salt contents.

You may use the BBQ or a cast iron grilling pan.

We just bought a cast iron grilling pan, now we can grill all year long. If you buy a grilling pan be sure it is heavy, they cook much better than the light weight ones.

Preheat the grill to very hot.

Grill zucchini for 10 minutes on each side.
Grill Ahi for 3-4 minutes on each side. Ahi should be seared on both side, pink in the middle.


Top with 1 T Marmalade mixed with 1 T Balsamic Vinegar,
or you my use the old standard Aoli:
Aoli-- equal parts mayonnaise, sour cream, flavor with soy sauce and fresh minced garlic to taste.
