Cooking Instructions | |
|---|---|
| 1. | In a medium bowl, combine 1/4 cup of olive oil, lime juice, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, minced ginger, and 1/4 cup of chopped cilantro. Add the tuna steak and ensure it is coated evenly. Allow it to marinate for at least 30 minutes, although longer marinating time is recommended for enhanced flavor. |
| 2. | In a small bowl, mix honey, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and 2 tablespoons of chopped cilantro. Set this glaze aside. |
| 3. | Remove the tuna steak from the marinade, but keep the marinade for later use. Grill the tuna over medium to low heat for 6-7 minutes per side, regularly basting with the reserved marinade. As the fish nears completion, brush both sides with the honey glaze, then take it off the grill and serve immediately. |
