Fresh Ahi 2 Ways

[Redicans]

My son’s friend has been fishing a lot lately and it is Ahi season here in the Islands. He has been hooking me up with nice slabs for $25.00. In the stores here locally 1lb is going for 20-25 bucks a pound. Slabs I have been getting are anywhere from 3-3.5lbs so it is a great deal and fresh as can be. I did a nice amount for Sashimi for a friend and myself for Pupu’s this afternoon. I didn’t have wasabi so Coleman’s hot mustard is just as good IMHO. Sent some home with my friend and gave some to my Brother also.

Wife is not a huge fan so I kept a few choice pieces to grill up for her and made her a nice dinner with a roasted Spaghetti squash. Ahi this fresh all you need is a light coat of olive oil and salt and pepper. Grill till lightly pink inside then rest for a few minutes. So good!!

Ahi is one of the few fishes I love to eat but it definitely has to be cooked.

No raw fish in this house.

Thanks Jcam, yeah when the Ahi are running and friends are fishing it is hard to turn down calls to buy some. I get my fill for sure.

Awesome! That looks so good! Use to get fresh-caught-that-day yellowfin tuna bellies from a guide friend all the time for sashimi. Oh my I can hurt myself on that!!

Looks great and what a good deal on the price .
Yes living on the coast can get you some very fresh items. But knowing the fisher is always a better deal then from the stores . Even here on the coast.

I would be up to try it grilled or baked for sure

Now I want a big Halibut steak, Dam you , lol
