"I adapted this from a recipe found in "Outsmart Diabetes Cookbook". Not a big lover of fish, I really enjoyed the flavor of this one. Note that the cooking time includes 1 hour for marinating. This can also be done in a basket on the grill."

Absolutely wonderful! I made this recipe exactly as stated except I marinated the tuna about 1 1/2 hours because Hubby is not a big fish eater and I thought it would help if I marinated it a little longer for him. We loved the pineapple with the tuna steaks. I recommend everyone try this dish. It's a keeper. Thanks vverkin925 for sharing this great dish! :-)

This was EXCELLENT!! This was the first time my hubby and I have ever had tuna steaks and this recipe was the perfect one to have tried. We didn't follow exactly because we didn't have a red pepper, so we just used green and we used crushed pineapple and we cooked it in olive oil on the stove. Next time we are going to follow it to a "T" and my mouth waters just thinking about it. GREAT RECIPE!!
