Best Teriyaki Ginger Grilled Ahi Recipes

TERIYAKI AHI

Steps:

• Place shoyu, brown and white sugars, ginger, sherry, oil, green onions, garlic, white pepper and 3/4 gallon water in a large pot and bring to a rolling boil. Let cool, then strain out the solids so you are left with just teriyaki sauce. Place the ahi in a large bowl and cover with the teriyaki marinade (save remaining marinade for another use). Let marinade, refrigerated, 4 to 6 hours.
• Preheat a grill for cooking at medium-high heat. Oil tuna and sprinkle with salt and pepper, then grill to desired doneness, 2 1/2 minutes per side for medium-rare.

GRILLED TERIYAKI 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.
