Baked fresh tuna in tomato purée

Yield: 1 Servings

Measure Ingredient
4 \N 6-ounce fresh tuna steaks
1 cup Fish stock or clam juice
⅛ teaspoon Black pepper
⅛ teaspoon Grated nutmeg
2 tablespoons Plus 2 tsp. tomato sauce
⅛ teaspoon Dried oregano or 1/4 tsp. fresh
¾ \N Lemon; juiced

Prep: 5 min, Cook: 20 min.

Preheat oven to 350°F. Arrange tuna in a baking pan. Pour fish stock over tuna and season with pepper and nutmeg. Cover with a buttered piece of foil. Bake 15 minutes, until fish flakes when tested with a fork, lifting the foil and basting fish occasionally. Transfer tuna to a warm serving dish. Pour pan liquid into a heavy nonreactive saucepan and boil 4-5 minutes, or until mixture is reduced in volume by half. Stir in tomato sauce and oregano and simmer until hot. Add lemon juice and serve sauce over fish. Sprinkle with parsley.
