Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup pineapple juice
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon ginger, grated
1/2 teaspoon light brown sugar
sriracha sauce (to taste)
4 ahi tuna steaks (6 oz each)
1 lb fresh green beans, trimmed and washed
4 pineapple slices
cracked pepper
cooking spray
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 tablespoon brown sugar

Steps:

  • Heat grill (or grill pan) to medium high heat.
  • Combine first five ingredients to make the marinade. I love Sriracha, but add slowly, because it is HOT!
  • Sprinkle Ahi tuna steaks with cracked pepper. Spray grill with non-stick spray. Grill each steak for 3-4 minutes each side (for a rare to med rare finish). While cooking, brush each side with marinade.
  • Towards the end of the grilling time, add pineapple slices and grill each side for 1 minute.
  • Meanwhile, heat a separate frying pan to medium high heat. Add olive oil, a splash of the marinade and 1/2 tablespoon of brown sugar. Add green beans and stir fry (7-8 minutes).
  • Plate the tuna steaks on top of 1/4 of cooked green beans. Top each steak with a pineapple slice.
  • Serve with a swirl of Sriracha on each plate and extra marinade on the side for dipping.
  • Enjoy!
