3⁄4 cup soy sauce
2⁄3 cup sake
1⁄3 cup sugar
4 scallions, thinly sliced
4 cloves garlic, peeled and thinly sliced
Zest and juice of 1 lime
2 tablespoons mirin or sweet sherry
6 (5-ounce, 3⁄4-inch thick) pieces high-quality tuna
Sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Directions
In a large glass or ceramic pan, combine the soy sauce, sake, sugar, scallions,
garlic, lime zest and juice, and mirin and stir to dissolve the sugar.
Add the tuna to the pan and marinate for 11⁄2 to 3 hours in the refrigerator, turning once during
the marinating.
Heat your grill to medium high. Lightly oil the grill or spray with cooking spray.
Remove the fish from the marinade and season with salt and pepper. Grill the tuna
for about 2 minutes per side, keeping it rare to medium rare in the center.
