LOW-FAT TERIYAKI GRILLED TUNA STEAKS



Low-Fat Teriyaki Grilled Tuna Steaks image

This is a wonderful, easy, and tasty way to prepare tuna steaks on the grill. I remember the first time I ate a tuna steak, was at a restaurant in N.C., and it was slathered with this herb butter. I remember thinking, why ruin a beautiful tuna steak by adding all that fat, when it doesn't even need it to taste incredible! This marinade adds just the right amount of flavor without piling on the fat...which leads to packing on the pounds!!!

Tips

- Choose the right tuna steaks. Look for steaks that are about 1 inch thick and have a deep red color. Avoid steaks that are thin or have a lot of white streaks. - Marinate the tuna steaks. Marinating the tuna steaks in a mixture of teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger will help to add flavor and keep the steaks moist. - Preheat your grill. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat before cooking the tuna steaks. This will help to sear the outside of the steaks and prevent them from sticking to the grill. - Cook the tuna steaks for 3-4 minutes per side. Cook the tuna steaks for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are cooked to your desired doneness. Tuna steaks are done when they are cooked through and slightly firm to the touch. - Let the tuna steaks rest before serving. Let the tuna steaks rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steaks and make them more tender.

The teriyaki marinade adds a sweet and savory flavor to the tuna steaks, and the grilling process helps to create a slightly charred exterior.
