Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces (6 ounces each) Fresh tuna steaks
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
- 4 pieces Lemon wedges
Instructions
Place the tuna steaks in a shallow dish.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Pour the marinade over the tuna steaks, making sure they are well coated. Let them marinate at room temperature for at least 10 minutes, or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 hours for more flavor.
While the tuna is marinating, preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent the tuna from sticking.
Remove the tuna from the marinade and place on the preheated grill.
Grill the tuna steaks for about 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until desired doneness is reached. Tuna is best served when it's still pink in the center for a nice tender texture.
Remove from grill and let rest for a few minutes.
Sprinkle the grilled tuna steaks with fresh parsley.
Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of freshness.
