Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6-8 oz each) Tuna steaks
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste) Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 medium-sized Ripe mango, diced
- 1 medium-sized Red bell pepper, diced
- 0.25 cup Red onion, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 small Jalapeño, minced (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade for the tuna steaks.
Place the tuna steaks in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them. Cover or seal, then let them marinate in the refrigerator for 15-30 minutes.
While the tuna is marinating, prepare the mango salsa. In a mixing bowl, combine the diced mango, red bell pepper, red onion, chopped cilantro, jalapeño (if using), lime juice, honey, and salt. Toss everything gently to mix well. Set the salsa aside.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the tuna steaks from the marinade and let the excess drip off. Discard the leftover marinade.
Place the tuna steaks on the preheated grill. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer if you prefer your tuna steaks more well done.
Transfer the grilled tuna steaks to a plate and let them rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Serve the tuna steaks topped with the fresh mango salsa. Pair with a side of rice, grilled vegetables, or a salad for a complete meal.
