Preparation

• Prepare a charcoal grill. Meanwhile, rinse the tuna, pat dry, and place in a shallow glass or ceramic dish. In a small bowl, whisk the remaining ingredients.
• Pour over the fish and cover with plastic wrap; marinate for 30-45 minutes in the refrigerator.
• When the fire is ready, drain the tuna and place it in a fish or meat basket. Grill the steaks 4" from the heat, 3 minutes per side for rare or approximately 5 minutes per side to cook through.
• Pierce with a fork to see if the fish is flaky and done. Baste with remaining marinade if desired.
