Ingredients
- 4 pieces fresh tuna steaks
- 0.25 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 pieces lemon wedges
Directions
Step 1
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to prepare the marinade.
Step 2
Place the tuna steaks in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring each steak is well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to infuse the tuna.
Step 3
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Once hot, lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Step 4
Remove the tuna steaks from the marinade and let any excess drip off. Place the steaks on the grill.
Step 5
Grill the tuna steaks for about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer if desired, depending on the thickness of the steaks and your preferred doneness.
Step 6
Remove from the grill and let the tuna rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Step 7
Serve the grilled tuna steaks with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of citrus flavor.
