Tuna With Apricot Chipotle Glaze
This is a fab tuna recipe the chipotle sauce works great with this with just the right amount of sweet meets spicy. I love tuna and this recipe is another one that is a little different than the usual way you see tuna prepared with a great tasting end result. I made some avocado salsa to go with this and topped with a couple of prawns as they were on special. I also served it with sliced mango and red pepper for a refreshing, delicious healthy meal. You could also serve this with rice if you wanted to add more carbs. To view more photos and read more reviews of this recipe please click here.
