I love Tuna Steak, but very rarely have it, however I have noticed it has got a little cheaper lately, and you can buy it in multipacks in the freezer aisle. Tuna is almost half the calories of beef steak, so makes a great alternative to your regular steak night.
These tuna kebabs are really tasty, coated in the traditional Moroccan Harissa spice packed with a lovely smokey chilli flavour. The grains come ready made, so all you have to do it warm them up and stir through your extra flavourings to give the whole dish some real zing.
The kebabs could be cooked on the griddle, grill or on the barbecue, so make a really tasty meal anytime of the year.
