  • 1/2 c

How To Make grilled ahi steaks

  • 1
    In a shallow 9 X 13 inch glass dish, prepare all of the marinade ingredients. Remember, if you have more than 2 8 oz tuna steaks, you might need to adjust the ingredients to marinate.
  • 2
    Marinate both sides (dredge steaks and get marinade on both sides).
  • 3
    Let sit in refrigerator for 30 minutes before grilling. Note: Soy sauce will overpower tuna if you marinate for too long!
  • 4
    Light the grill while tuna is marinating. Once coals are white (30 minutes) spread them and clean the grill, then wipe with oil so steaks don't stick.
  • 5
    Grill for 4 minutes or less per side for 1 inch steaks, depending on how you like them. Steaks should be firm with pink in the middle. If you prefer steaks to be more rare, grilling time should be 2 1/2 minutes on each side.
