Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Fresh tuna is most frequently sold as steaks. It is the most "beef-Like" of all fish, thanks to its deep red color when raw - it's an ivory hue after cooking.
  • tip 2
    This easy fish dish would be delicious with a side dish of buttered broccoli florets tossed with hot bow tie or rotini pasta.
