Yellowfin tuna is always delicious when grilled. This is great at a tailgate party, or at your Saturday afternoon summer barbecue. You can add a little cayenne pepper or minced fresh ginger to the marinade to give it a little extra kick.

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

1 cup teriyaki sauce
¾ cup olive oil
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 (4 ounce) fillets yellowfin tuna

Steps:

In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the teriyaki sauce, oil, garlic, and pepper. Place the tuna fillets in the bag. Seal the bag with as little air in it as possible. Give the mix a good shake, to ensure the tuna fillets are well coated. Marinate for 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
Meanwhile, preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil grate.
Remove tuna from marinade, and place on grill. For rare tuna, grill for 3 to 5 minutes on each side. For medium, grill 5 to 8 minutes per side. For well done, grill for 8 to 10 minutes per side.

MARINATED GRILLED TUNA STEAK

Marinated Grilled Tuna Steak image

The secret to a perfect tuna steak is to cook it as you would a rare or medium-rare steak, overcooking will produce a tough dry fish, the center needs to be pink -- plan ahead the steaks need to marinade for 8-24 hours, prep time includes refrigeration time --- I have made this in the past many times it is very good!

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

3 (4 ounce) fresh tuna steaks
ground black pepper (to taste) or lemon pepper (to taste)
1/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon lemon juice or 1 tablespoon lime juice
3 tablespoons oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
3 fresh garlic cloves, minced (can use less if desired)

Steps:

In a bowl combine all marinade ingredients until well blended.
Place the tuna steaks into a shallow glass dish (I use an 11 x 7-inch baking pan for this).
Pour the marinade over the tuna steaks and turn to coat.
Cover with plastic wrap.
Refrigerate 8-24 hours (turning a couple of times during chilling).
Preheat the grill to HIGH heat.
Oil the grill grate.
Remove the steaks from marinade (discard any marinade) and place on a plate.
Season lightly with freshly ground black pepper on both sides.
Grill the steaks for 5 minutes per side or until rare or medium-rare (DO NOT overcook the tuna or it will be dry!).
Delicious!
