Chili-Lime Tuna Steaks

Today it's going to be a high of 71 in State College and with the Spring Football game, grilling season has officially begun! These meaty steaks have the perfect balance of spice from the chili and sour from the lime. And because this tuna is so firm, it is a great fish to use in sandwiches! Much like a cut of beef, you can cook these steaks to your preferred temperature. My family likes them rare so once the grill is hot, we cook our tuna in no-time. 

Enjoy the weather and I hope you spend a part of your weekend with family and friends!  

Ingredients: Serves 5

Tuna Steaks (1" Thick)--- 5
Garlic (halved)--- 2 Cloves
Lime Juice--- 3 TBSP
Chili Powder--- 1 TBSP
Old Bay Seasoning--- 2 TSP
Apple Cider Vinegar--- 2 TBSP
Salt & Pepper--- To taste

STEP BY STEP:

• In a large mixing bowl, made a marinade by combining lime juice, vinegar, chili powder, Old Bay and Garlic

• Season Tuna with salt and pepper and place in the marinade for at least 30 minutes

• Once grill is hot, sear tuna (For rare/medium rare steaks sear for 1-2 min per side. For medium/well steaks sear for 3-4 min per side)

• Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes (this locks in the juices)

Enjoy!!
