M-m-mmm-mmmmm... Such a refreshing and light dinner! I absolutely loved the wasabi, ginger, and soy on the tuna. Fantastic with fresh ripe tomatoes, english cukes, and mixed greens. I will absolutely be making this all the time while we have grilling weather!

Very good and easy fish dinner. I loved the garnishes and used them all. The marinade was great. Thanks! Made during ZWT7 for the Golden Gourmets.
