• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Remove tuna from the marinade. Shake excess moisture from the steaks.

GRILLED TUNA STEAKS

Steps:

• To grill the tuna, get a charcoal or stove-top cast-iron grill very hot. Brush the fish with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill each side for only 2 to 2 1/2 minutes. The center should be raw, like sushi, or the tuna will be tough and dry. Allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes and serve.

TUNA STEAKS, GRILLED AND MARINATED

Steps:

• Combine the lime juice, olive oil, sun-dried tomatoes, cumin and hot pepper sauce in a glass or ceramic dish large enough to hold the fish snugly in a single layer.
• Cut the fish into six uniform pieces. Place them in the dish, turn them once to coat both sides, cover and refrigerate for at least two hours. Turn the fish once while it is marinating.
• Heat a grill or broiler. Grill or broil the tuna until it is seared on the outside but still rare in the middle, two to three minutes on each side, depending on the thickness of the fish and the heat of the grill or broiler.
• Serve at once topped with the pepper salsa.
