This recipe came from the fish market at my local grocery, and is the best marinade I have found for tuna. Everybody loves it.
|
Ingredients: |
|
1 1/2 lbs |
|
fresh Ahi Tuna (frozen/previously frozen is not the same) |
|
1/2 cup |
|
about juice from two limes |
|
1/4 cup |
|
olive oil |
|
4 tsp |
|
Old Bay Seasoning |
|
1 tsp |
|
chopped fresh cilantro |
Directions: |
|
Combine ingredients for marinade, put in plastic bag with fish. Marinate the tuna for 30-60 minutes. Remove from marinade and place on grill. Grill to desired doneness. We prefer medium rare and it is delicious. It is easy to overcook tuna. You can always cook it a little more. A thick steak should take no more than 8 minutes for medium rare.
1-1/2 lbs tuna usually serves 4. You eat a much smaller piece than you would a steak. Leftovers are good the next day on a sandwich or salad.
