Print: Grilled Tuna - PantryLink

There's nothing quite like grilled tuna to please fish lovers! Tuna is available most of the year, so fresh steaks should be easy to come by. Simply marinate briefly in olive oil to keep the fish moist as it cooks on the grill and avoid overcooking — timing is critical, as tuna tastes best served medium rare.
