3. Place the tuna on the grill rack. Grill until browned but still pink in the center, about 6 minutes on each side for medium-rare.

No time to prepare the grill? Broil the tuna instead. Spray a broiler rack with nonstick spray and preheat the broiler. Place the tuna on the rack and broil 5 inches from the heat until barely pink in the center, about 6 minutes on each side.

I used this recipe as my first attempt ever making ahi tuna. I absolutely loved it! It was very easy to make and the whole family loved it. The only thing I'd change is the cooking time. I made this on my outdoor grill and think 6 min per side may have been a bit too long for this method. - 6/23/13
