Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Combine the sherry, soy sauce, honey, garlic, lime juice, chili sauce, and ginger in small sauce pan. Put the tuna steaks in a baking dish and pour a quarter cup of the marinade over the steaks. Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes (or refrigerated for up to two hours).
  2. Prepare a medium-hot charcoal fire or preheat a gas grill to medium-high. (We like to use our indoor grill pan in the winter - just make sure it is smoking hot.).
  3. Remove the tuna steaks from marinade and pat dry. Brush the steaks on both sides with vegetable oil. Grill, turning once, for 3 to 5 minutes on each side. Be careful, as the tuna will get dry if overcooked.
  4. Meanwhile, put the remaining marinade in a small saucepan over medium-high heat and cook until reduced to syrupy consistency, about 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in sesame oil. Serve the tuna teaks with the soy-ginger glaze and top with a heaping portion of the pickled cucumbers.
  5. Pickled Cuke Preparation
  6. Put the cukes and red onion in a small bowl. Add the vinegar and toss to coat evenly. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 days.
