How to Make Mirin Marinade
- In a medium bowl, whisk together all marinade ingredients until well combined.
- Add ahi steaks or scallops to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Marinate for 30 minutes. Do not marinate longer to prevent the acids from cooking the seafood.
- Reserve 1 ounce of the marinade for basting during grilling.
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
- Remove ahi or scallops from the marinade and discard the used marinade.
- Sear ahi steaks for 2-3 minutes per side for medium-rare doneness, or adjust cooking time based on desired doneness and thickness of the seafood. Cook scallops for 2-3 minutes per side, until opaque and lightly browned. Baste with the reserved marinade during the last minute of grilling.
- Serve immediately over a fresh salad or as a main course. Enjoy with pineapple wasabi aioli for an extra burst of flavor!
