Name: Grilled Tuna with Fresh Horseradish
Prep time: 5 min
Cook time: 6 min
Total time: 31 min
Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients: 2 (8 ounce) fresh tuna steaks; 1 teaspoon vegetable oil; 2 tablespoons soy sauce; 2 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar; 1 tablespoon finely grated raw horseradish root, or more to taste; 4 cherry tomatoes, sliced; ½ teaspoon hot chile paste (such as sambal oelek); 1 tablespoon minced green onion

Whenever I hear people say you shouldn't ruin fresh fish at the sushi bar by dipping it in copious amounts of wasabi-spiked soy sauce, I think to myself, yeah, but that's how I like it. Sometimes I just don't care about overpowering the natural flavors, and this grilled yellowfin tuna with freshly grated horseradish sauce recipe is one of those times.

Grilled Tuna with Fresh Horseradish

tuna

vegetable oil

soy sauce

seasoned rice vinegar

horseradish

cherry tomatoes, sliced

hot chile paste (such as sambal oelek)

green onion

Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate. Lightly oil steaks with vegetable oil.


Stir soy sauce, rice vinegar, horseradish, cherry tomatoes, and hot chile paste in a bowl until well combined. Let sit for 20 minutes.


Place steaks over hottest part of the grill and cook for 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate. Spoon soy sauce mixture over steaks and garnish with green onion.


Really good.  Quick &amp; easy.  Did not change a thing.  Will make again soon, maybe have friends over and impress them.  ;)

Quick and easy recipe to make, in addition it was fantastic. One thing I changed, because I could not locate chili paste at my grocery store, I used Siracha sauce and added in more horseradish shavings to kick up the hea. I highly recommend trying this recipe out, not only for Tuna, but for any other grilled fish.

When I read Chef John's introduction I knew this was the recipe for us. We too love to drown our sushi in copious amounts of wasabi in soy sauce. I used 1 tbsp of horseradish powder instead of fresh and Frank's Hot Sauce as I didn't have hot chile paste. It was awesome! Thanks Chef John for the simplest yet delicious recipe! It's my go to recipe for fresh tuna steaks.

I thought this was great! I added a little extra horseradish root. It was super simple, which is always a plus. Since we have a freezer full of tuna, I enjoyed that this tasted different than so many other tuna recipes.

When I make tuna steaks for dinner this is the recipe I always use. I don't change anything. Both my husband and picky eater son love this.

Excellent with the fresh horseradish. I found with a little more chile paste it brought a little more heat to the dish. Very easy to prepare.

I really enjoyed the flavors of the sauce (I put a little bit over my rice as well)!  I did sub prepared horseradish for the fresh (because that's what I had on hand).  Made for a nice "meatless Monday" meal.

Absolutely excellent!  Thanks for the recipe!  Will make again and again!  I also didn't have hot chile paste and used sriracha sauce as well.

Wow such a great dish and the flavor was fantastic! I’ll definitely make that again

Yummy!!!   Used Whirstisher sauce instead of soy.  Perfection!

Easy, nutritious, and excellent flavor.  Made almost according to recipe.  Grocery store did not have horseradish root so had to use prepared horseradish and did not want to buy Sambal Chile Sauce for 1/2 teaspoon so used Sriracha Sauce.  Will make this again with fresh horseradish but will still use Sriracha Sauce.

Do again.  Served as a simple yet tasty meal with grilled asparagus and paired with an Alsatian Pinot Noir rosé.  Used jarred horseradish which I drained well.  You need to watch the timing on the tuna as it does tend to dry out.  Followed the timing instructions,  but you need to be mindful.

I like this a lot. I used jarred horseradish and chipotle adobo paste.

My BF caught some tuna so I wanted to do something special with it and went straight to Chef  John.  I had everything on hand except the horseradish, so I substituted fresh ginger root.  It was fantastic and the tuna was to die for, a perfect way to make my friend's accomplishment the star of the show.

Made this on an outdoor grill, my whole family loved it (including my teenagers).  Will definitely make again! Thanks for sharing!

Easy peazy!  Grilled tuna on stovetop pan.  Perfect!!!

Delicious! Also made it with Salmon - both delicious!! Yummy!!

Used hot jarred horseradish and a light sprinkle of seafood grilling herbs. What a yummy dish

This is a very good marinade! I used four boneless chicken breasts from Costco (love those!) and doubled the recipe. I subbed in  Sriracha and used just a teaspoonful.  I marinated the chicken all day, boiled the leftover marinade and basted the chicken a few times in the last 15 minutes of cooking time.  Tasty!!

My husband made this recipe tonight, and it was delicious. Will definitely make it again. He did add a bit of garlic to the recipe.

I had to use wasabi in place of the horseradish and added 2 tablespoons.  OUTSTANDING !

I didn't have all the stuff  but substituted with similar and it turned out Great.  I'm no cook either.  I didn't have a grill either.  I used one of those new microwave bowls that grills after 3 min. I gave them a half turn just  like he said. Oh.  I didn't have Tune either.  I used Salmon from the Dollar Tree, put it on day old rice and boy was that good.  I finished up the Stir Fry from a couple of days ago to with a little dried up garlic toast.  It was a feast.

Not spicy at all and too much soy sauce flavor that masked the other flavors. Sounded like it will be better than it as.

This was good, but I think there are better tuna recipes on this site.  I didn't have any tomatoes which I think would have helped.  Husband liked it better than I.

This was awesome.Probably the best tuna recipe I’ve tried. Family raves about it. Local store didn’t have horseradish root so I bought a jar of ground horseradish at the deli. DEFINITELY recommend adding more horseradish after it’s prepared. Brings it to another level of awesome.

I added Sriracha instead of the Chile paste and Tarragon vinegar. it was awesome.

I marinated the tuna in the sauce and it was delicious.

the best flavor always use italian salad dressing never again this is my go to tuna marinade

See how to make grilled tuna that just explodes with flavor.
