Tuna: Sesame Soy Ahi Tuna Steaks

Pairs well with my Edamame recipe

Ingredients

  • 4 (5 oz.) Ahi tuna steaks – Orka Bay brand from Woodman’s
  • 1 Tbls. canola or olive oil
  • 1/4 c. reduced sodium Kikkoman soy sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • juice of 1/2 a lime
  • 1 t. fresh ginger, peeled and finely chopped
  • 2 t. sesame oil

Instructions

Rinse steaks and pat dry with paper towel.

Whisk together soy sauce, garlic, lime juice, ginger and sesame oil. Place tuna in a glass baking dish, pour marinade over top, let marinate at room temp for 30 minutes or cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.

Heat oil in a skillet, oil a grill pan or oil grill grates.

Remove tuna from marinate and pat dry. Fry or grill tuna steaks, turning only once. Cook about 5 minutes or until your desired doneness.

NOTE: Also good served with oriental coleslaw or rice with soy sauce
