This Amazing Grilled Soy-Ginger Tuna Steak recipe offers a flavorful and healthy way to enjoy tuna steaks, marinated in a savory mix of soy sauce, fresh ginger, garlic, and a touch of honey, then perfectly grilled to medium-rare in just 30 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Tuna Steaks

  • 2 tuna steaks (about 6 ounces each)

For the Marinade

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Prepare the marinade: In a shallow dish, whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, grated ginger, minced garlic, sesame oil, honey, and black pepper until well combined.
  2. Marinate the tuna steaks: Place the tuna steaks in the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes at room temperature, or up to 30 minutes in the refrigerator for deeper flavor.
  3. Preheat the grill: Heat your grill to a medium-high temperature to ensure a good sear on the tuna.
  4. Prepare the grill grates: Lightly oil the grill grates using a brush or a paper towel dipped in oil to prevent the tuna from sticking during cooking.
  5. Remove excess marinade: Take the tuna steaks out of the marinade and let any excess drip off. Discard the remaining marinade to avoid flare-ups on the grill.
  6. Grill the tuna steaks: Place the tuna steaks on the preheated grill and cook for 3-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, adjusting cooking time based on your preferred doneness.
  7. Rest the tuna: Remove the tuna steaks from the grill and allow them to rest for a few minutes. This helps the juices redistribute for a tender, flavorful steak.

Notes

  • For a spicier twist, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade.
  • Ensure the grill is properly preheated to prevent the tuna from sticking.
  • Do not overcook the tuna; it is best enjoyed medium-rare to retain moisture and flavor.
  • Serve with a fresh salad or steamed vegetables for a balanced meal.
  • You can substitute honey with maple syrup for a vegan-friendly option.
