Banda-style Tun This recipe is typical of middl eastern cuisine. A mixture of lime juice, shallots, thai chiles, and a handful of other ingredients are all it takes to make this recipe so scrumptious. To use up the ice cubes you could follow this main course with the Nectarine, Blackberry, and Pecan Sundaes as a dessert. It is a good option if you're following a gluten free, dairy free, whole 30, and pescatarian diet. From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes around 45 minutes.

Recommended wine: Merlot, Pinot Noir, Rose Wine

Merlot, Pinot Noir, and rosé Wine are my top picks for Tuna. Though fish is often paired with white wine, 'meatier' fish like tuna can absolutely go with red wine. A Rosé will also pair nicely, particularly if your tunan is prepared with ingredients better suited to a white wine. One wine you could try is Maddalena Merlot. It has 4.8 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 19 dollars.
