INSTRUCTIONS
1
In a food processor or a blender combine the garlic, salt, oregano, basil, and pepper and pulse to a paste. Slowly drizzle enough olive oil to achieve a spreading consistency.
2
Rinse the tuna steaks off in cold water. Drain and blot dry with paper towels.
3
Using a spatula or your fingers, spread the spice paste on both sides and put in a shallow baking dish large enough to hold them in a single layer.
4
Pour an additional ¼ cup olive oil over the fish and turn to coat. Place in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to 3 hours.
5
When ready to cook, preheat the grill to high.
6
Remove the tuna steaks from the marinade. Brush with an additional 1-2 Tbsp olive oil.
7
Grill the steaks until cooked to your taste. We like them cooked medium, about 4-6 minutes per side.
