How to Make Low Fat Teriyaki Grilled Tuna Steaks

  1. In a bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 2 tablespoons mirin, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 1 teaspoon grated ginger, 1 clove minced garlic, 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes.
  2. Remove 1/3 cup of the marinade and set aside in a small bowl for basting.
  3. Cover and refrigerate the remaining marinade.
  4. Place tuna steaks in a large resealable plastic bag.
  5. Pour the remaining marinade over the tuna steaks, ensuring they are fully coated.
  6. Seal the bag, pressing out excess air, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 4 hours.
  7. Preheat your grill to medium heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
  8. Remove tuna steaks from marinade and discard the marinade.
  9. Grill tuna steaks for 5-6 minutes per side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork, basting frequently with the reserved marinade.
  10. Serve immediately and enjoy!
