I've already reviewed this wonderful recipe but forgot to tick the well deserved 5 start.

Pretty good tuna. The recipe was easy and quick to do. I marinated the steaks for almost an hour. Used a grill pan, which worked quite well. Made mine a little rare and "his" well done. Rare was very good; we won't talk about the well done steak. (I try to tell him!) Oh, the black pepper is a nice touch! Pets, thanks for posting . . . . Janet

This is a nice quick and easy recipe. Only change I made was to use 2 cloves garlic. Cooked on grill pan, seared around the edges, rare in the middle. Thanks for the recipe. Will make again

Very tasty stuff. I made this 2night with jasmine rice and stmd broccoli. I didn't really follow the amounts listed; I just sprinkled it all over the fish. I added some chopped scallion to the marinade and didn't use olive oil. I let the pan get hot then drizzeled in some sesame oil and cooked the fish in it until med-rare. I removed the fish from the pan and poured the marinade in the pan and let boil until reduced and poured it over the fish. It was really good and we enjoyed it alot. Next time I am going to add sesame seeds and ginger. Thanks for posting this great and simple recipe. This will be made again and again.
