Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6-ounce each) tuna steaks
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 cloves, minced garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley
- 4 pieces (for garnish) lemon wedges
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground black pepper, and salt to create the marinade.
Step 2
Place the tuna steaks in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the steaks, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Step 3
Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate the tuna steaks for at least 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Step 4
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F/200°C) and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Step 5
Remove the tuna steaks from the marinade and allow any excess marinade to drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.
Step 6
Place the tuna steaks on the preheated grill. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or to your preferred level of doneness.
Step 7
Carefully remove the tuna steaks from the grill and transfer them to a serving plate. Let them rest for 2 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Step 8
Sprinkle the tuna steaks with freshly chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side for a bright, tangy finish.
