Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 oz each) Tuna steaks
- 0.25 cup Soy sauce
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh orange juice
- 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
- 1 teaspoon (grated) Fresh ginger
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh parsley
- 4 pieces (for serving) Lemon wedges
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, fresh lemon juice, fresh orange juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, honey, black pepper, and sea salt until well combined.
Place the tuna steaks in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them, ensuring all sides are coated evenly.
Cover the dish or seal the bag and refrigerate the tuna steaks for at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours to allow the flavors to infuse.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the tuna steaks from the marinade, allowing any excess liquid to drip off, and discard the remaining marinade.
Place the tuna steaks on the preheated grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, depending on your desired level of doneness. For medium-rare, the tuna should still be slightly pink in the center.
Remove the tuna steaks from the grill and let them rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Garnish the grilled tuna steaks with chopped fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
