Tuna in Ginger and Lime

Lovely Meal

You can't beat a freshly caught piece of tuna, marinaded and then  cooked on a charcoal barbecue.

If you don't have a barbecue, heat the oven grill to its highest temperature, and grill the fish for about 10 minutes, turning occasionally and basting with the marinade.
