Backyard Tuna Company
Living in Lima, Peru we were introduced to fresh and flavorful fish that inspired us to try new things in the kitchen. Now back in Chicago, we have created Backyard Tuna Company as a platform to share our knowledge of seafood and cooking with you.

A Twist on your Favorites
Whether it’s giardiniera on your ceviche or raw tuna served inside cucumber slices, we take classic favorites and put our own spin on it.
Learn Something New
Our mission is to teach recipes from all over the world, using ingredients and techniques that take you out of your comfort zone.
Hot & Spicy
We love putting sriracha and jalapeños on everything. That’s why most of the recipes you will find on Backyard Tuna have a fiery kick.
Exclusively Seafood
We only cook seafood dishes. We believe a narrow focus on the key ingredients will push us to get more creative with our recipes.
