Strange thing, I can't make the symbols at the bottom of the question box work, the upside down question mark and so on :-(

Answer 1

Amazingly enough, Birdie, I have used such a recipe, which I have used several times. Riquísimo! Got it from the internet but I have no idea where.

4 5oz Uncooked Fresh or Frozen ( thawed) Ahi Tuna Steaks 1 inch thick

1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil 1/2 tsp Salt - Kosher Lemon Juice from 1 wedge of lemon 1/2 tsp 1/4 tsp Cracked black pepper freshly ground 1/2 tsp finely chopped oregano or 1/4 tsp dried 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes or dash crushed dried 1 tsp finely chopped basil or 1/4 tsp dried Garlic, 1 clove minced fine

You can also add some fresh finely cut ginger.

1) Preheat Outside Grill on Medium High setting when you start your prep. Or start your charcoal grill about 30 minutes before you plan to grill tuna.

2) Pat tuna steaks with paper towels to remove excess moisture then place in a shallow dish.

3) Mix all spices with oil and lemon juice in a small bowl with a fork or wisk. Allow to rest for at least 5 minutes to blend together.

4) Brush oil only on steaks and grill for 2-3 minutes on each side to sear the steaks.

5) Take steaks off grill, brush mixture on both sides of Tuna steaks and allow steaks to rest for another 5 minutes.

5) Grill steaks on hot grill 2-3 minutes more on each side to attain desired doneness. For well done there should still be some pinkness to the center. I prefer barely warm red centers.

Aviso - Don't overcook. ¡Buen provecho!
