Type: Fish
Courses: Main Course
Serves: 6 people

Recipe Ingredients

4   Yellowfin tuna steaks - (8 to 10 oz ea) - cut 3" cubes
2 tablespoons 30mlOlive oil
1/4 cup 23g / 0.8ozMinced gingerroot
  Marinade
2 cups 474mlTeriyaki sauce
1/2 cup 118mlDry sherry
4 tablespoons 60mlFinely-chopped fresh ginger
1/2 cup 73g / 2.6ozChopped scallions
2   Garlic cloves - thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon 2.5mlCayenne
2 teaspoons 10mlFreshly-ground black pepper
  Juice of 2 lemons

Recipe Instructions

Combine all the marinade ingredients in a bowl large enough to hold the tuna. Place the tuna steaks in the marinade and refrigerate for 3 hours, turning every hour.

Thirty minutes before cooking, drain the tuna and bring to room temperature. Preheat outdoor barbecue to very hot.

Brush the tuna with the olive oil. Grill the steaks for 1 to 2 minutes on each of their six sides. The outside of the tuna should be nicely charred and the center should be barely warm and quite rare. Cooked this way, the tuna will remain moist and flavorful.

Top each steak with ginger and serve.

This recipe yields 6 servings.
