• 1/2 cup light soy sauce

• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

2. Preheat a grill, or broiler with rack in the top position.
3. Brush the grill with vegetable oil. Discard the marinade and grill the tuna (or broil it on a rack set in a baking pan) for 3 minutes on each side until medium rare.
