Chubby Cheetah's Kitchen, Recipe # 4, Ahi in Rich White Orange Sauce

I know this one sounds too rich, but it is not near as rich as it sounds. The flavor of the fish is the predominate thing you taste.

Ingredients-

1 block Ahi Tuna
12 oz. ricotta cheese
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 ripe orange
1 pinch sea salt
1 dab coconut oil to grease bread pan

I use a bread pan because it is small enough to keep the Ahi and sauce in tight quarters. I grease the entire pan down with coconut oil, you could use olive oil also.

Pre heat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix the ricotta cheese, mayo, most of the Parmesan, and salt together.  Cut the orange in half, and squeeze half of the orange into the mixture. Then with a fine cheese-grater,  grater some of the rind into the ricotta mixture, and stir again.

Cut Ahi into 1/2 inch steaks.  Dip each steak into the ricotta mixture until it has a thick coating. Stack the steaks next to each other in a row. Pour any remaining sauce over top. Sprinkle the rest of the Parmesan over top, and grate a little more orange rind over the top.

Bake for 20 minutes at 350 degrees. Then turn the oven down to 300 degrees for 10 more minutes. This dish is awesome. Enjoy!
