Grilled Tuna Steaks image

This is a delicious, simple and healthy recipe for grilled ahi tuna steaks. If you're in a hurry you can skip marinading them for one hour and just cover them with the sauce and place them directly on the grill. You can cook these steaks on your barbecue or on a George Forman grill, or even on your stovetop. Good tuna should be purchased fresh and cooked so it is still pink in the middle -- just like a steak.
