CANNED TUNA MEXICAN STYLE

Steps:

• Heat Mazola corn oil in a skillet over medium heat, add the onion and sauté until transparent, this will take a couple of minutes.
• Now add the minced garlic and continue frying for about two minutes.
• Add the Serrano pepper to cook for another couple of minutes, stirring with onion and garlic.
• Stir in minced tomatoes, lower the heat of the stove and place the lid on the pan. Let it cook for about 6-8 minutes. If tomatoes are too dry, add a few tablespoons of water to the pan
• Add canned tuna and herbs to the sauce, stir. Season with salt and pepper, cook for about 5 minutes, just long enough so that flavors are mixed and tuna is hot.

MEXICAN TUNA STEAK, SWEET RED PEPPERS & AVOCADO SALSA

Steps:

• Sprinkle tuna steaks with sea salt, black pepper and drizzle with olive oil on both sides. Set aside.
• Heat 3 tablespoons of coconut oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and peppers, cover with a lid and cook for 5 minutes, stirring a couple of times. Add paprika, cumin, chilli, garlic, vinegar, a good pinch of salt, and about two tablespoons of water. Mix through and cook for 5-7 minutes until softened and slightly browned. Remove to a plate, or use a different frying pan for tuna steaks.
• Grind the coriander seeds with a mortar and pestle or use coriander seed powder instead. Heat up a little oil and butter (or ghee) to sizzling hot in a frying pan. Add coriander seeds and the zest of one lime (about a teaspoon of zest). Stir through to infuse with the flavours. Add the tuna steaks and turn the heat down to medium. Drizzle with juice from half a lime and cook for 2 minutes on each side (more if you like it well done and less if it's super fresh and you like it rare). Use a spoon to bathe the steaks in the buttery, lime sauce they're cooking in.
• Combine avocado and fresh coriander and season with a little sea salt and the remaining lime juice, about one tablespoon.
• Assemble red peppers on the serving plates. Place tuna steaks and top with avocado salsa and more red peppers. Squeeze extra lime juice and drizzle with a little extra virgin olive oil just before serving.
