I added a little lemon juice to the marinade but did everything else as described in the recipe. Delicious!
Greek Tuna Steaks
The combination of Mediterranean flavors works equally well not only with the tuna steaks in this recipe, but also with striped bass or red snapper fillets. Serve with couscous mixed with feta cheese, sliced black olives, and chopped tomato.
Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 steak)
