Recipe Ahi Tuna

[medium187mph]

I scored some Ahi Tuna just the other day.

Anyone have a simple recipe for grilling it?

I'm thinking a pineapple glaze medium rare over a bed of green leafy stuff

I used this recipe before and it turned out pretty good

Well, you can tune a piano but you can't tuna fish!

Another option if you are doing tuna steaks:

Yeah I got 12 nice steaks and I'm thawing out 2 for tomorrow night.

I've tried grilling ahi steaks before, but they stuck to the grill (I either didn't use enough oil or my thermometer was wrong)

As long as you grill it on foil it'll be fine

I got Reynolds foil and thought I better use it.

I got cedar planks for salmon and it works great but I don't think I wanna try it on the tuna

Grill it as hot as possible for a very short amount of time. Don't go too crazy with the spices. Something as simples as salt and pepper is great. If your grill grates are hot enough it shouldn't sick at all. What are you cooking on?

Just a simple 4 burner charbroil grill... Nothing fancy as some of you guys have

Not a problem. You can make great food on there noisy make sure it's really hot before you put them on and don't over cook it. It should be served rate or else the texture gets weird and it dries out
