Grilled Tuna Recipe
Ingredients:
- 6g green tea bbq seasonings
- 2 tuna steaks (about 6 ounces each)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- Lemon wedges, for serving
Instructions:
Prepare the Tuna Steaks:
- Start by seasoning your tuna steaks with the green tea bbq seasonings, a pinch of salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Let them sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
Make the Marinade:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, honey, dried oregano, and dried thyme. This mixture will be used to marinate the tuna steaks.
Marinate the Tuna:
- Place the tuna steaks in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring that both sides are well coated. Cover and let marinate for 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the fish.
Grill the Tuna:
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Once the grill is ready, place the marinated tuna steaks on the grill grates. Cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until the tuna is cooked to your desired level of doneness. For medium-rare, the center should still be slightly pink.
Garnish and Serve:
- Once the tuna is grilled, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a minute. Transfer the tuna steaks to a serving platter. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
Enjoy Your Grilled Tuna:
- Serve your delicious grilled tuna as a light and flavorful main course. The combination of tender, juicy tuna, infused with the unique flavors of green tea bbq seasonings and the zesty marinade, creates a delightful and satisfying meal. This dish is perfect for a summer barbecue or a special occasion. Enjoy!
