Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Fresh tuna is done when it's still partially pink in the center. If you grill it longer, it may become overdone, so watch it carefully.
  • tip 2
    Broiling Directions: Marinate fish as directed. Set oven control to broil. Brush broiler pan rack with canola oil (do not spray). Place fish on rack in pan. Broil with tops about 4 inches from heat 10 to 15 minutes, turning once, until fish flakes easily with fork and is slightly pink in center.
