Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Tuna

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade. Place the Yellowfin tuna steaks in the marinade and let them sit for at least 15 minutes.

Cooking

    Preheat the Grill or Pan

    Preheat a grill or a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 3

    Cook the Tuna Steaks

    Remove the tuna from the marinade, letting excess marinade drip off. Place the steaks on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer if desired.

Serving
