Ingredients
- 4 pieces Fresh tuna steaks
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 4 pieces Lemon wedges
Directions
Step 1
Begin by placing the tuna steaks in a shallow dish that can hold the marinade.
Step 2
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, soy sauce, minced garlic, black pepper, and sea salt to create the marinade.
Step 3
Pour the marinade over the tuna steaks, ensuring they are fully coated. Let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes and up to 30 minutes for better flavor absorption.
Step 4
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Step 5
Brush the grill grates with a little olive oil to prevent the steaks from sticking.
Step 6
Remove the tuna steaks from the marinade and place them directly on the grill.
Step 7
Grill each side of the tuna steaks for approximately 3 to 4 minutes, depending on your preferred level of doneness (medium-rare is ideal).
Step 8
Once cooked, remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Step 9
Garnish the grilled tuna steaks with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side for added flavor.
Step 10
Enjoy your high-protein grilled tuna steaks with your choice of side dishes, such as a fresh salad or grilled vegetables.
