This is the best recipe! We make it regularly now, after trying it a few months ago. We put chives in the lemon butter instead of parsley.

I'd never cooked tuna steaks before, so I was I little bit nervous. Followed the recipe exactly and they turned out excellent! Simple and healthy! My family enjoyed eating them. Can't wait to make them next week when my in-laws come.
