Asian Grilled Tuna: Tips & Tricks

If you're looking for a tasty and healthy dinner recipe, an Asian grilled tuna with wasabi aioli is a great place to start. However, grilling tuna isn't always easy, and you don't want to end up with a dry, overcooked piece of fish. To ensure that your tuna turns out juicy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked, follow these tips and tricks.
Choose the Right Tuna
First things first: you need to choose the right tuna for your recipe. Not all tuna is created equal. Look for fresh, sushi-grade Ahi tuna steaks, which will give you the best flavor and texture. Tuna is a great source of omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and other nutrients, so it's an excellent addition to a healthy diet. When buying tuna, make sure it smells fresh and doesn't have a strong fishy odor.
Marinate the Tuna
To give your tuna extra flavor and help keep it moist during grilling, marinate it for at least 30 minutes before cooking. There are a variety of Asian-inspired marinades you can use, such as soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and sesame oil, that will give your tuna a delicious taste. You can also experiment with different marinade combinations to find your favorite. Just be sure not to marinate the tuna for too long, as the acidity can start to "cook" the fish, making it tough.
Preheat the Grill
Before grilling your tuna, make sure your grill is preheated to medium-high heat. This will ensure that your fish cooks evenly and quickly. If you put your tuna on a cold grill, it will take longer to cook, and you run the risk of overcooking it.
Oil the Grill Grates
To prevent your tuna from sticking to the grill grates, make sure to oil them well. Use a paper towel or grill brush to apply oil to the grates before cooking. This will also help create those beautiful grill marks you see on restaurant-style tuna dishes.
Grill the Tuna Quickly
When it comes to grilling tuna, less is more. You want to cook it quickly over high heat, so it stays juicy and tender. Depending on the thickness of your tuna steak, it will take roughly 2-3 minutes per side. Avoid overcooking your tuna, as it will become dry and tough. We recommend using a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of your tuna, which should be around 120-130°F for medium-rare.
Make the Wasabi Aioli
While your tuna is grilling, you can prepare the wasabi aioli. This sauce is an excellent complement to the Asian flavors of the tuna and adds a nice spicy kick. To make the aioli, mix mayonnaise, soy sauce, wasabi paste, garlic, and lime juice together in a small bowl. You can adjust the amount of wasabi paste to your taste, whether you like it mild or extra spicy.
Serve and Enjoy
Once your tuna is cooked to perfection, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it. This will help the juices distribute evenly throughout the fish, giving you a moist and flavorful piece of tuna. Drizzle the wasabi aioli on top of the sliced tuna, and serve it with your favorite Asian-style vegetables, such as bok choy, edamame, or stir-fried noodles. You can also garnish with sesame seeds or chopped scallions for an extra pop of color and flavor. With these tips and tricks in mind, you're ready to make an Asian grilled tuna with wasabi aioli that will impress your family and friends. Whether you're grilling outside on a summer evening or cooking indoors on a cold winter night, this dish is a perfect choice for any occasion.
