Preparation

  1. In a large plastic bag combine soy sauce, lemon juice, 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, garlic, sugar, pepper and salt. Add tuna steaks, coating well with marinade. Seal bag, and refrigerate at least 30 minutes, and up to 2 hours.
  2. Place a ridged grill pan over medium-high heat for about a minute. Brush pan with vegetable oil. Remove fish from marinade, discarding liquid, and add to pan. Cook to taste (3 minutes on each side for medium-rare). Serve immediately.
