Herb and Garlic Grilled Tuna Steaks

Making restaurant-quality grilled tuna steaks at home is not only easier than you might think, it also helps you enjoy this coveted fish at a fraction of the price. These Herb and Garlic Grilled Tuna Steaks are rubbed with a mixture of fresh aromatic herbs, like parsley, tarragon, garlic, and lemon zest, which infuses the fish with flavor as it sears on a hot grill. Whether you are making a romantic dinner for your significant other, rocking your own high-protein post-workout meal, or serving fresh fish to your family, this flavorful recipe is a winner.

We know that when you drop a chunk of change on a nice piece of fish, you really want to make sure it’s cooked properly. It’s all too easy to overcook fish and end up with dry, flavorless meat. The trick making perfect fish on the grill (or under a broiler) is to cook it quickly – searing the outside then removing the fish from heat so that the inside stays tender and moist and retains all of those healthy fats that make it so succulent. These grilled tuna steaks only need to cook for about two to five minutes per side, depending on how thickly they are cut and how rare (or well-done) you prefer to serve them.
