In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, soy sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, black pepper, and salt to create a marinade.
Place the Ahi tuna steaks in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, turning the steaks to ensure they are fully coated. Let them marinate for at least 10 minutes at room temperature.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Remove the tuna steaks from the marinade and pat them dry with paper towels, which will help get a good sear.
Oil the grill grates to prevent sticking, then place the tuna steaks on the grill.
Grill the tuna steaks for 2-3 minutes on each side for a rare to medium-rare finish, depending on your preference.
Remove the tuna steaks from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
Slice the tuna steaks thinly against the grain and serve them garnished with chopped green onions.
