  • Marinate the tuna steaks. Marinating the tuna steaks in a mixture of olive oil, soy sauce, wasabi, and toasted coconut will help to add flavor and moisture to the fish.
  • Grill the tuna steaks over medium-high heat. This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the fish while keeping the inside moist and flaky.
  • Serve the tuna steaks immediately. Grilled tuna steaks are best served immediately after they are cooked. You can garnish them with additional toasted coconut, wasabi, or a squeeze of lime juice.
