Tuna Steaks with Cumin Tartar Sauce

Ingredients
4 6-ounce fresh or frozen tuna steaks, cut 1 inch thick
1/4 cup cooking oil
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon cumin seeds, toasted
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 recipe Cumin Tartar Sauce

Directions
1. Thaw fish, if frozen. Rinse fish; pat dry with paper towels. Place
fish in a resealable plastic bag set in a shallow dish. For marinade, in
a small bowl stir together oil, lemon juice, cumin seeds, pepper, and
garlic. Pour over fish; seal bag and turn to coat fish. Marinate in the
refrigerator for 30 to 60 minutes, turning fish once. Drain fish,
reserving marinade.

2. Lightly grease or coat with nonstick spray an unheated grill rack.
For a charcoal grill, grill fish on the greased rack of an uncovered
grill directly over medium coals for 8 to 12 minutes, or until fish
begins to flake when tested with a fork and center of fish is still
slightly pink, gently turning and brushing once with remaining marinade
halfway through grilling. Discard any remaining marinade. (For a gas
grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Place fish on greased grill
rack over heat. Cover and grill as above.) Serve fish with sauce. Makes
4 steaks.

3. Cumin Tartar Sauce: Finely chop any large fruit pieces in 2
tablespoons mango chutney. In a small bowl combine chutney, 1/3 cup
mayonnaise or salad dressing, 1 teaspoon Dijon-style mustard, 1 teaspoon
lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon cumin seeds, toasted. Cover and chill until
serving time.
