Fruity Tuna Steaks

Curry powder, orange juice, and apricot jam add great flavor to tender tuna steaks. Because the steaks are simmered in the sauce, they pick up more flavor.

SERVES 4

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 teaspoons curry powder
  • ⅓ cup frozen orange juice concentrate
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • ¼ cup apricot jam
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 6-ounce tuna steaks
  1. In heavy skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Sprinkle curry powder over onions; cook and stir for 2 to 3 minutes longer, until onions are crisp-tender.

  2. Add orange juice concentrate and water to skillet along with apricot jam and salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer and add tuna. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes per inch of thickness, turning tuna once during cooking time, until fish flakes when tested with fork. You can serve tuna medium-rare if you'd like.

  3. Place tuna on serving plate. If necessary, reduce sauce by turning heat to high and simmering until thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Pour sauce over tuna and serve.
