Sautéed Vegetables

Marinade

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Tuna

    In a bowl, mix soy sauce, lemon juice, sesame oil, and honey. Place the yellowfin ahi tuna steaks in the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Chop the bell peppers, zucchini, and carrots into bite-sized pieces. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Add the chopped vegetables to the skillet. Season with salt and black pepper. Sauté for 5-7 minutes or until the vegetables are tender but still crisp. Remove from heat and set aside.

  2. 4

    Grill the Portabella Mushrooms

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Clean the portabella mushrooms and brush them lightly with olive oil. Grill for 4-5 minutes on each side until they are tender and have grill marks. Remove from grill and set aside.

  3. 5

    Grill the Tuna

    Remove the tuna steaks from the marinade and grill them for 2-3 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness is achieved. The tuna should have a nice sear on the outside while remaining pink in the center.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Plate the Dish

    Place each grilled portabella mushroom on a plate. Top with a grilled yellowfin ahi tuna steak. Finally, spoon the sautéed vegetables over the tuna. Serve immediately.
