How to cook tuna steaks

Our Tuna is a sushi-grade fish, which means it can safely be eaten raw as sushi, ceviche or tartare! However, if raw tuna is not your thing, our tuna steaks can easily be cooked using the method you prefer.

Preparing your tuna before cooking

Our Tuna steaks are cut and ready to cook. There is no need to rinse the fish before cooking, just pat dry using kitchen towels.

Grilling tuna steaks

Before tuna steaks are thick and meaty, they are perfect for cooking on the BBQ, grill or pan. Cook for about 2 minutes on each side on medium-high heat so the outside is cooked but the tuna is still fresh in the middle, just like a medium-rare steak.

Baking tuna steak

If you prefer tuna cooked through, try baking it. Wrap the steaks in foil or parchment paper along with a drizzle of olive oil, some seasoning and your favourite veggies and cook for 10-15 minutes, until just cooked through and flaking easily.

Cooking tuna steaks in sauce

To prevent steaks from drying out, you can slowly simmer steaks in a sauce of your choice, for about 10 to 15 minutes. Try a tomato-based sauce with some basil or Italian herbs!
