A delightful recipe for grilled tuna steaks marinated in a tangy and savory blend, perfect for a summer meal.
In a mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, juice of the lemon and lime, chopped parsley, minced garlic, and freshly ground black pepper.
Mix the marinade thoroughly to ensure all flavors are evenly distributed.
Place the tuna steaks in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well coated.
Turn the steaks occasionally to ensure even marination.
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight.
Marinating overnight enhances the flavor absorption.
Preheat your grill to high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Ensure the grill is hot before placing the steaks to achieve a good sear.
Remove the tuna steaks from the marinade and let any excess drip off. Discard the used marinade.
Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel for better grilling.
Grill the tuna steaks for about 4-5 minutes on each side, depending on your preferred doneness.
Avoid overcooking to keep the tuna moist and tender.
Serve the grilled tuna steaks hot, garnished with additional chopped parsley if desired.
Pair with a side of fresh salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
