omg i can't believe how GOOD this tasted it was absolutely delicious! i had some ahi tuna steaks that i wanted to use up but i never thought that it would taste like this. i didn't have terriaki or sherry so i used some oyster sauce. marinated it in a plastic bag for about... mmm almost 3 hours and should've let it come to room tempurature, but forgot to. i served it with this website's asian beet salad. omg i can't express how good this tasted
flavorful

This is the best dish I have made yet! My husband loved it! Though it seems as if the seasonings would make the tuna too salty, it was just right. However, I only marinated for 1 hour rather than three. I highly recommend this recipe. It was served with sauted garlic spinach and mashed potatoes.
You'll love it!

I loved it, it is really easy to do, without complex tricks and easy to memorize too. If you like seafood and like tuna, this is a recipe to try. Be aware you need to prepare this with at least 3 hours of anticipation. Tip: Instead of whole steak, try cutting the tuna steak in slices (~half an inch) and only 1 hour - 1.5 hour marinating, and then serve as tapas. You gotta try this!
Delicious and Easy

My family (two teenagers with very different tastes in food) and I loved this dish. I did leave the steaks whole, and did not cube, but they came out perfect with the grilling instructions. Even my son who doesn't like sushi, or rare tuna, loved it. It was cooked enough to not have that raw feel and taste, but to still be moist and juicy. We didn't top off with the pickled ginger, we don't care for it with our sushi either. I served it with stir fried rice. It's now on my regular rotation. Marinade would probably be great with chicken, shrimp or salmon too!
really special

I'm so glad i found this. I never liked tuna filets , always found it bland and boring a bit like a dry steak. But cooked like this, in smaller 'cubes', marinated for a few hours, covered with with fresh ginger and green onions, it becomes much more tender and tasty. The really great thing about this recipe is the topping of pickled ginger. I've never found a use for pickled ginger outside of that pre-sushi tradition, and I have to admit- though now I have a whole jar of pickled ginger in my fridge with no real use- that it really adds an essential taste to the rest of the dish. I cooked up some sushi rice with it too, and with The marinade it was a perfectly complete dish..
resturant quality recipe

I actually only used this marinade and cooked the tuna in a grill pan. It was delicious! I then used the extra marinade for yellowtail and broiled it, fantastic! I'm going to try it with chicken too.
Great Flavor

My husband and I thought this was an excellent recipe. I cut it in half for 2 tuna steaks, marinated it for just over a hour the flavor was terrific. I served it with asparagus and a salad. Great dinner.
