My Father's Daughter': Gwyneth Paltrow's Grilled Tuna Rolls
You can never have too many hor d'oeuvre recipes, so give My Father's Daughter': Gwyneth Paltrow's Grilled Tun It will be a hit at your The Fourth Of July event. A mixture of salt, sunflower oil, a few dashes of pepper sesame oil, and a handful of other ingredients are all it takes to make this recipe so tasty. From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes around 20 minutes.
Instructions
Preheat the grill or grill pan over high heat.
Whisk together the miso, oil, agave, water, and rice wine vinegar. Season to taste with salt. Rub the tuna steaks all over with the mixture and place on the grill. Evenly sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the sesame seeds on the fish. Grill on the first side for 3 minutes, flip, and sprinkle the cooked sides with the remaining sesame seeds. Grill for an additional 3 minutes and then remove to a plate. I like the tuna to be just cooked through, but feel free to grill for less time if you prefer it medium or even rare.
To serve, grill or toast the buns.
Lay a few lettuce leaves on the bottom half of each bun.
Cut the tuna into 1/2-inch slices across the grain and evenly distribute on the lettuce.
Drizzle each sandwich with a tablespoon of the vinaigrette, being sure to get plenty of sliced shallots in each spoonful, and sprinkle with the cilantro leaves. Close each sandwich with the top halves of the buns and serve with lots of napkins.
Whisk the vinegar, agave, and soy sauce together. While whisking, drizzle in the vegetable oil.
Add the hot pepper sesame oil to taste and stir in the shallots and cilantro. If you make this in advance, be sure to stir it well before serving.
Recommended wine: Merlot, Pinot Noir, Rose Wine
Merlot, Pinot Noir, and rosé Wine are great choices 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 Beringer Howell Mountain Bancroft Ranch Merlot. It has 4.2 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 35 dollars.
