Lime and Wasabi Encrusted Tuna Steaks

So this comes from my boss, Kurt, with just a few added ingredients.

Ingredients:

  • 2 Tuna steak
  • Paprika
  • Lemon
  • Lime
  • 4 Garlic cloves
  • Soy Sauce
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • Wasabi
  • Soy-Vay Wasabiyaki
  • Talent

For the marinade

Finely chop up the garlic (or just use garlic powder if you’re lazy) and grate some zest from the lemons and lime (again, see above about being lazy).  Squirt like 2 inches of wasabi paste into it and sprinkle in some paprika.  Add, I don’t know, like half a cup of soy sauce and 2 tsp of EEE-VEEE-OH-OH to the mix and leave the tuna steaks in there for a good 20 minutes or so in a zip lock bag.  Be sure to mush it around and shake it like an idiot to coat both steaks thoroughly.

To the Grill

Personally, I like my tuna raw, with slight grill marks on both sides.  Get the grill to around ~250 F and hit both sides for about 3-4 minutes each. Bikity bam son, you’re done.

I can’t stress enough how AWESOME Wasabiyaki is.  Made for a great dipping sauce.  Also, with the left over tuna I had, it made for a nice dressing on my Grilled Tuna Salad the next day.

Have fun.
