Grilled Tuna with Pesto

Total time: 25 minutes
    A simple dollop of pesto sauce is a great accompaniment to grilled fish.

 Ingredients:

• 2 tuna steaks, 6oz each (180gr), about 1" (2.5 cm) thick, sushi-grade ahi if you can get it
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 1 tbs olive oil
• 1 tbs red wine vinegar
• 1 tbs ketchup
• Pesto Sauce:
• 2 tbs pesto
• 1 tbs good olive oil
• 1 tsp white Balsamic vinegar

 Instructions:

• Mix oregano, oil, vinegar and ketchup. 
• Brush onto tuna and let marinate for 10 - 25 minutes. 
• When ready grill over direct heat using grill basket, mat or directly on the grill, brushing with oil first.  Grill for 2 - 4 minutes per side for medium rare.  If not sushi-grade, cook until medium - medium well, still pink in the middle, 6 - 7 minutes per side, all times depending on thickness of tuna and personal taste. 
• Can also be cooked under broiler or sautéed in nonstick pan for roughly the same amount of time. 
• Pesto Sauce: 
• Mix pesto, olive oil and vinegar.
• To finish:
• Serve with 1 1/2 tbs Pesto Sauce on top of each steak.
