fall, grilled, main course, mediterranean, salads
summer

MARINADE:
1 tablespoon tamari soy sauce
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh fennel leaf
2 teaspoons fresh celery leaves
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
1 small bay leaf; broken
2 teaspoons grated tangerine zest
Black pepper
FISH:
1 pound fresh tuna
center-cut into four 4 oz. steaks; 1 inch thick
4 tangerines
16 sprigs fresh fennel leaf
TANGERINE AND FENNEL VINAIGRETTE:
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 cup light olive oil
1/2 teaspoon grated tangerine zest
2 tablespoons fresh fennel leaf
Salt or black pepper

1. For the marinade, combine all marinade ingredients in a nonreactive bowl. 2. Put tuna steaks into marinade and refrigerate 30 minutes, turning occasionally. 3. Break 2 of the tangerines into sections. Squeeze the remaining 2 tangerines, pour juice over sectioned tangerines, and set aside. 4. Heat grill. Add mesquite or hickory chips for additional flavor. 5. Remove tuna steaks from marinade and grill over hot fire until fish is just springy to the touch, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Tuna should be rare to medium rare. 6. Divide each tuna steak into 3 to 4 slices, cutting against the grain. Drain tangerine sections and reserve juice. Arrange tuna slices with drained tangerine sections and fennel sprigs in fan shape on individual plates, cover, and chill. Reduce tangerine juice by one-fourth over medium-high heat and use to make vinaigrette. 7. For the vinaigrette, combine vinegar, reduced tangerine juice, and mustard in a nonreactive bowl. Whisk in oil and season with tangerine zest, chopped fennel leaves, and salt and pepper to taste. 8. Drizzle dressing over arranged salad plates just before serving.
