Instructions
Prick tuna steaks all over with a fork and place in shallow glass dish.
Whisk oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, lemon peel, and garlic together in a bowl; pour over the tuna steaks. Cover dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate 1 to 3 hours.
Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
Remove tuna from the marinade. Shake excess moisture from the steaks.
Pour the marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook marinade at a simmer for 10 minutes.
Cook tuna on preheated grill, basting with boiled marinade, until cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes per side.
Recommended wine: Merlot, Pinot Noir, Rose Wine
Tunan on the menu? Try pairing with Merlot, Pinot Noir, and rosé Wine. Though fish is often paired with white wine, 'meatier' fish like tuna can absolutely go with red wine. A Rosé will also pair nicely, particularly if your tunan is prepared with ingredients better suited to a white wine. One wine you could try is Raymond R Collection Merlot. It has 4.1 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 12 dollars.
Raymond R Collection Merlot
The Merlot fills the mouth with smooth cherry, raspberry and plum flavors along with hints of earth and spice in the toasty vanilla finish. Full-bodied, yet approachable, with a good balance of acid and tannins. Pair with anything from grilled salmon, pork tenderloin, barbequed chicken and ribs to Thai red curry or Moroccan tagine.
