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!

Doesn't anybody follow the d*mn recipe? If you don't prepare it one time following the given recipe then you have no idea if your changes are better or worse than the original!

This was the first time making these steaks. I used amino acid instead of soy sauce. Had to water it to taste as it was quite strong, but very good recipe. Turned out just like the picture. We enjoy our steaks just a little bit more cooked, not too raw so cooked a minute more each side, but steaks were almost 1.5 inches thick.. Definitely do not cook too long as tuna will turn hard and or too well done after it sits for awhile. Loved the flavor. Also, I used Chritospher’s Ranch garlic/ginger paste instead of garlic and ginger amounts. Used it to our taste after blending the rest of the ingredients together. Marinated it over night. Was sooooo good! Saved recipe to personal file. Num!

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.
