Tuna with Mango Salsa

Serves 4

This salsa works equally well with salmon, poultry, and pork. Serve the dish with dark, leafy greens that have been sautéed with garlic.

Ingredients

4 6-ounce tuna steaks, 1 inch thick
¾ teaspoon ground coriander
1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
1 mango, seeded and cut into ½-inch cubes
4 slender scallions, cut diagonally into ¼-inch rounds
¼ cup packed cilantro leaves
2 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
½ teaspoon Asian (toasted) sesame oil

Directions

  1. Set oven rack 4 to 6 inches from broiler and turn on broiler. Season both sides of tuna with coriander and cayenne; place on broiler pan. Broil 5 minutes on each side, or until tuna is pale pink in center (cut into fish to check).

  2. Meanwhile, stir together mango, scallions, cilantro, vinegar, and sesame oil.

  3. Transfer tuna to serving plates, top with mango salsa, and serve immediately.
