Ingredients
- 1 pound tuna albacore loin skinless
- ΒΌ cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- ΒΌ cup coconut aminos
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- Β½ teaspoon Red Boat fish sauce
- ΒΌ teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- Β½ teaspoon Aleppo pepper (optional)
- 2 slices bacon thin-cut
Method
- Preheat the broiler on high and arrange the oven rack six inches from the heating element.
- Cut the tuna loin crosswise, into five mini steaks, about 1.5-inch thick. Place them in a large bowl.
- In a measuring cup, whisk the orange juice, coconut aminos, vinegar, fish sauce, black pepper, and Aleppo pepper. Pour the marinade over the fish and marinate for 15 minutes.
- Place the bacon on a microwave-safe plate lined with four sheets of paper towel and cover with two sheets. Microwave the bacon on high for 1-2 minutes so it is cooked halfway but still pliable.
- Wrap each marinated tuna medallion in a slice of par-cooked bacon (with the ends tucked under the fish) and place them on a rack on top of a foil-lined baking tray.
- Broil the bacon-wrapped tuna for about 4 minutes on one side and flip them over and cook them for an additional 2 minutes (or until bacon is crispy). Serve immediately.
