• Zest and juice of 1 orange
• 2 tablespoons (30 ml) soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon honey (5 g)
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 4 tuna steaks, each about 6 ounces (170 g) and 1-inch thick

Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the marinade by combining olive oil, lemon juice, orange juice, soy sauce, honey, garlic, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl.

2. 2

   Place the tuna steaks in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the top. Ensure the steaks are well coated, cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

3. 3

   Preheat the grill to high heat (about 450°F/232°C).

4. 4

   Remove the tuna from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off.
