Ingredients
- 4 pieces (about 6 ounces each) fresh tuna steaks
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley
- 2 medium, sliced zucchini
- 1 large, sliced red bell pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your outdoor grill to medium-high heat.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and fresh lemon juice to create a marinade.
Step 3
Place the tuna steaks in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure evenly coated and let them marinate for at least 10 minutes.
Step 4
While the tuna is marinating, prepare the vegetables: slice the zucchini and red bell pepper.
Step 5
On a separate part of the grill, place the zucchini and red bell pepper slices. Grill for about 5 minutes per side until tender and slightly charred.
Step 6
Once the vegetables are grilling, place the marinated tuna steaks on the grill. Grill the tuna for approximately 3-4 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the steaks and your preference for doneness.
Step 7
Remove the tuna steaks and grilled vegetables from the grill.
Step 8
Garnish the grilled tuna steaks with fresh chopped parsley.
Step 9
Serve immediately with the grilled vegetables on the side.
