Ingredients

Orange-Ginger Marinade

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame or vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon orange juice
  • 1 teaspoon grated gingerroot or 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

Sandwiches

  • 4 tuna steaks, about 4 ounces each
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise or salad dressing
  • 4 kaiser or sandwich buns, split
  • Lettuce leaves
  • 1 large tomato, sliced
  • 1/2 medium cucumber, thinly sliced

Steps

  • 1
    In ungreased 8-inch square glass baking dish, mix all marinade ingredients; remove 1 tablespoon marinade and reserve. Add tuna to marinade; turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate at least 15 minutes but no longer than 2 hours.
  • 2
    Spray grill rack with cooking spray. Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat. Remove tuna from marinade; discard marinade. Cover and grill tuna over medium heat about 10 minutes, turning once, until fish flakes easily with fork.
  • 3
    Mix reserved 1 tablespoon marinade and the mayonnaise; spread on cut sides of buns. Layer lettuce, tuna, tomato and cucumber in each bun.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Use your favorite buns in place of the kaiser rolls.
  • tip 2
    Fish generally takes about 10 minutes to grill for each inch of thickness. Add more time if the steaks are thicker, or grill the fish for slightly less time if the pieces are thinner.
