Grilled Ginger Tuna Steaks & Pears

Yes, once again, you heard that correct, Tuna with Pears. It was awesome. What you need :

Ingredients:

2 - 2 " thick tuna steaks
1 Asian Pear Peeled & Sliced Thickly
1/2 cup of Trader Joes Mango-Mangosteen Juice
1 TBSP ginger paste
2 TBSP Terriaki Sauce

In a large bowl mix the juice with the ginger and terriaki sauce.
Wash & peel the pear and put the slices with the tuna steaks into the sauce. Either turn frequently to coat everything in the marinade or Shake lightly if you have a lid for the bowl. Allow to sit in the marinade for 30 minutes.

Heat your grill and put down foil to cook on. I like the Reynolds Non-Stick Foil. Especially when grilling.

When the grill is hot, add the Pears & Tuna Steaks and pour the marinade over them. Put the grill cover down and let cook for 5 minutes, then check to see if the Tuna is turning from red to white on the bottom and up the sides. At that point turn everything over and allow to cook about 5 more minutes. Depending on your grill & thickness of the Tuna Steaks this can take between 10 and 15 minutes to fully cook the tuna. Remove from the fire and plate to serve. The flavor is simple and lightly spicy sweet. And the pears are a wonderful counterpoint to the meaty flavor of the Tuna Steaks.

Enjoy...
