How to Make Marinated Tuna Steaks
In this video, Nicole shows you how to make marinated tuna steaks with fresh herbs. After mixing together the marinade using ingredients like freshly chopped parsley, oregano, soy sauce, orange juice, and garlic, let the meat marinate in it for around 40 minutes. Finally, sear the steaks over the grill and drizzle lemon juice over the top when they’ve finished. It’s quick, easy, and pops with so much fresh flavor that this will quickly become a go-to fish recipe.

00:00 There is more to do with fresh tuna than serve it up as sushi. We are going to make marinated
00:05 and grilled tuna steaks. If you can get your hands on some of the good stuff,
00:08 this is gonna be good. I'm gonna start by chopping my fresh herbs. I'm just doing a little parsley
00:14 and oregano. That fresh fish from the sea needs fresh herbs. Don't be messing with the dried
00:19 stuff here. Into the bowl, I'm gonna add in one clove of garlic, orange juice, about a tablespoon
00:26 of fresh lemon juice, a good bit of soy sauce, and then a little bit of olive oil to balance it all
00:32 out. Just whisk it up. Just pour it over. Toss this around to make sure it's nice and coated.
00:38 I'll probably give it another toss in about 15 minutes. At this point, we're just gonna cover it
00:43 up, pop it in the fridge for about 30 to 40 minutes. It's gonna be good. All right, marinated,
00:50 ready to go. I'm gonna do this in a grill pan. Key point here is to make sure your fire is hot.
00:56 Hot, hot, hot. We're looking to sear. It doesn't have to be cooked all the way through. This is
01:01 not chicken. I'm gonna oil my pan or your grates if you're doing an outdoor grill.
01:22 Before I take them off, I'm gonna hit them with a little bit of cracked pepper,
01:25 and just like that, they're done. This is the best way to serve that fresh catch.
01:29 Yum. Oh, that's gonna be good.
01:35 Perfection. Perfect bite. It literally pops with flavor in your mouth. I can't describe it any
01:47 other way, but as soon as I put that bite in, the citrus, that soy, the freshness from the tuna and
01:52 the herbs, it's like all hit at one time. I'm telling you, if you need a quick, easy, delicious
01:58 go-to fish recipe, this is the one. What a catch. All right, I'm gonna bowl them and I'll make a
02:07 marinade.
