Grilled Tuna Steaks

This Grilled Yellowfin Tuna Steak recipe is a real showstopper – elegant enough to impress guests, yet refreshingly simple to prepare. With a zesty, herb-infused marinade and a quick flame-kiss on the grill, it's a dish that brings out the very best in our premium Yellowfin Tuna Steaks.

Ingredients for the Marinade

A bold and citrusy blend to complement the richness of the tuna:

120ml fresh orange juice

60ml soy sauce

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Method

1. Prepare the marinade
Whisk together all the ingredients in a bowl until well combined.

2. Marinate the tuna
Place your Tuna Steaks in a shallow dish or resealable bag. Pour the marinade over, ensuring the steaks are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.

3. Grill the steaks
Preheat your outdoor grill to high. Remove the tuna from the marinade and place directly on the grill. Cook for 5–6 minutes per side, basting occasionally with the leftover marinade. For medium-rare, the internal temperature should reach 125°F (about 52°C).

Serving Suggestion

Serve with a fresh green salad, grilled veg, or a light citrus couscous for a summery, sea-to-plate experience.
