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.

Broiled White Fish Parmesan

Super Good and super quick! This white fish recipe is spectacular! If you want an amazingly quick meal, this is the way to do it. For a little less tang, reduce the lemon juice.Submitted by: SEABEACON8

i thought the lemon was way to overpowering...so unless you LOVE lemon i would maybe use a little less or try something else. - 8/7/09

This was amazing. I made it with grapeseed oil instead of olive(using a little less) and it still tasted great. I just ate the shrimp and zucchini without the pasta. Next time I plan on using the pasta. Great recipe. I will use it many more times! - 7/24/09

I made this tonight and my daughter and I loved it. I only put in one zucchini though because it just seemed like it was enough for us. We love lemons, so we thought the flavor was fantastic! Thanks for a great recipe. - 7/5/09
