Time 3h40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups teriyaki sauce
1/2 cup dry sherry
4 tablespoons finely chopped ginger
1/2 cup chopped scallions
2 cloves garlic, peeled and thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
Juice of 2 lemons
4 yellowfin tuna steaks, weighing 8 to 10 ounces each, cut into cubes
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup pickled ginger

Steps:

  • Combine all the marinade ingredients in a bowl and place the tuna steaks in it. Refrigerate for 3 hours, turning the tuna every hour.
  • About half an hour before cooking, remove the tuna from the marinade to a plate, and let it reach room temperature. Preheat a grill, barbecue or pan to very hot.
  • Brush the tuna steaks with olive oil. Grill for 1 to 2 minutes on each side. The outside should be well seared, and the center should be just warm and very rare.
  • Garnish each tuna steak with pickled ginger, and serve.

The marinade was a bit too salty for my taste. I reduced the amount of salt and added a bit of honey to balance out the flavors. The end result was a delicious and flavorful tuna dish that everyone at the table enjoyed.

I marinated the tuna for a few hours, and the flavors were amazing. However, I found that the cooking time was a bit too long for my liking. I prefer my tuna to be cooked medium-rare, so I adjusted the cooking time accordingly.

I love how versatile this recipe is. I've tried different variations, such as using different herbs and spices in the marinade or grilling the tuna instead of searing it. Each time, the results were fantastic.
