Caribbean-Style Albacore

4 servings

cuisine: Caribbean

meal type: Entrée

technique: Grilled



1 to 1 1/2 pounds Pacific albacore, loin cuts or steaks 1 1/2 cup low-fat plain yogurt 1 tablespoon orange marmalade 2 teaspoons lime juice 1 1/2 teaspoon curry powder 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 2 tablespoons lime-juice 1/8 scant teaspoon salt assorted fresh fruit

The low-fat yogurt sauce in this recipe is flavored with orange marmalade and curry powder -- a taste sensation without heavy cream or unnecessary fats! Caribbean-Style Albacore is especially nice with the combined flavors of the albacore, fruit and a little dipping sauce in each bite!

Rinse albacore with cold water; pat dry with paper towels. Set aside. Blend together yogurt, marmalade, 2 teaspoons lime juice and curry powder. Chill for 15-20 minutes. Combine oil, 2 tablespoons lime juice and salt. Baste albacore with oil mixture. Place on well-greased grate 5-6 inches from hot briquettes. Cook 8 minutes per inch of fish, measured at thickest point, turning once and basting frequently. Do not overcook! Albacore should be pink in center when removed from heat. Serve with curry-yogurt sauce. Garnish with assorted fresh fruit such as sliced strawberries, melon and grapes.

NOTE: Albacore may be broiled on a well-greased broiler pan 5-6 inches from source of heat. Follow grilling times and directions.
