Grilled Mediterranean Ahi Tuna

Ahi Tuna (Yellowfin) Steaks Grilled with a Mediterranean Flair. Yellowfin Tuna or Ahi Tuna is usually served either Raw, as in sushi or Seared. or Grilled. When I first had this tuna grilled in spain with olive oil and salt I couldn't believe it was fish at all. This recipe is a bit of a cross between seared italian style and Spanish grilled.

The sodium is really high for a single meal - this is due to the old el paso refried beans - I will use pinto beans and mash them myself - this cuts out 1193mgs of sodium. Another note: this is enough food for two servings which makes it an EXCELLENT high protein LOW CAL meal, too! Kudos & thanks - 5/14/09
