Used very fresh tuna steaks, maybe used a bit more ginger then was stated in the recipe, did not broil them but used my grill pan. This was the best Tuna Teriyaki I have made so far!

I have to say that the cooking method was really good in this recipe, the steaks turned out like the picture flying chef has posted. We thought the marinade needed something else to it. It was just a bit plain for us, but it was a really healthy filling meal! Thanks for posting!

This was delicious! I used rice wine vinegar instead of wine (for lack of) and I used Splenda instead of sugar. The sauce was phenomenal! Thanks for posting.
