Grilled Longfin ala Pennington
 

Grilled Longfin and Calamari over Baby Arugula

We were lucky enough to catch a nice Longfin tuna on our last trip on the Sea Devil with Capt. Bob Pennington. We also caught many squid which can be very tasty when prepared correctly.

Here is a simple recipe for the tuna and the squid.

Ingredients

2 Longfin tuna steaks
4 medium squid cleaned
1 large Baked potato
1 lime
1/2 cup Itallian dressing (zesty)
Small bag of baby Arugula
Non stick spray
Salt Pepper

Lemon juice, olive oil

Take cooked baked potato and cut in quarters. Brown till crispy in a non stick pan on all sided. Leave the skin on.

Marinate the tuna steaks and squid in the dressing and juice of one lime for 1/2 hour. Add salt and Pepper.


Spray grill with Pam and heat grill on highest setting very hot.
Place steaks on grill and cook 2 minutes on each side with the lid down,
Do the same with the squid.

Serve over bed of baby Arugula seasoned with a little lemon juice and olive oil.

Note...Longfin can dry out quickly if over cooked so be careful not to over do it. The marinade does soften up (cook) the fish a bit so a minute or two on each side of a 3/4 inch steak does the trick.

Enjoy!

Leif- next time you have a longfin steal, do it parmigian. Flour, egg wash, bread crumbs, sear in pain with olive oil, cover with red sauce, lay on mozzurella, then cover pan for a minute. Whole process shouldn't take more than three minutes, steak should be rare, tastes like veal, not fish!!

Thanks Capt. Rich. I am going to try that. Sounds good.
