Ingredients

• 4 pieces (about 6 oz each) Tuna steaks
• 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh rosemary
• 3 cloves (minced) Garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 4 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Red pepper flakes
• 4 pieces (for garnish) Lemon wedges

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the chopped rosemary, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, soy sauce, black pepper, salt, and red pepper flakes to create the marinade.

Step 2

Place the tuna steaks in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag, then pour the marinade over the fish, ensuring each piece is well coated.

Step 3

Cover the dish or seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to infuse into the tuna.

Step 4

Heat a large non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Remove the tuna steaks from the marinade, letting any excess marinade drip off, and place them in the skillet or on the grill.

Step 6

Cook the tuna steaks for about 2-3 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer if you prefer them well done.

Step 7

Remove the tuna steaks from the heat and let them rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.

Step 8

Serve the tuna steaks garnished with lemon wedges and optionally sprinkled with additional fresh rosemary for a fresh herbaceous touch.
