How to cook deliciously - Grilled Tuna Steak with Scallion Sauce

1. Stage

Prepare a grill for high heat; clean and oil grates with vegetable oil. Arrange scallions in a single layer on grill and place a small baking sheet on top of them so whole scallion makes contact with grill. Grill until softened and charred, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and let cool.

2. Stage

Once cool enough to handle, finely chop scallions and transfer to a small bowl. Whisk in sesame oil, soy sauce, lemon zest, lemon juice, lime zest, lime juice, and salt.

3. Stage

Season tuna steaks all over with vegetable oil and salt. Grill just until there are visible grill marks, about 2 minutes per side for rare and 3 minutes per side for medium-rare.

4. Stage

Transfer tuna to a plate. Spoon scallion sauce over top. Serve with greens and lemon wedges alongside, if using.
