Health and fertility benefits of Grilled Teriyaki Tuna Packet
Tuna is great for a high protein diet as it has 33 grams of protein within its housing, with no pesky carbohydrates to worry about. In addition to this, tuna contains B vitamins and vitamin D, both of which are vital to fighting back against PCOS. One tbsp of honey has a glycemic index (GI) of 55.
Ingredients
1/4 cup lower-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup water
2 Tbsp honey
4 pieces of aluminum foil (12 inches long each)
Cooking Spray
12 oz package fresh stir-fry vegetables
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp no-salt seasoning (such as Mrs. Dash or Salt-Free Spike)
4 (4-oz each) yellowfin ahi tuna steak (fresh or frozen; if frozen, thaw before using)
Instructions
In a small sauce pan, whisk together the soy sauce, water, honey, and garlic. Bring to boiling, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 7 to 8 minutes or until the sauce is reduced to 1/4 cup. Set aside to cool.
Preheat an outdoor grill to medium heat and spray one side of each sheet of foil with cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, toss together vegetables, garlic and seasoning.
Evenly divide the vegetables among the pieces of foil. Top the vegetables with a piece of tuna steak and drizzle 1 Tbsp of prepared Teriyaki sauce over the tuna.
Bring the ends of the foil together and fold over tightly, three times until sealed to make a packet.
Grill the packets for 20 minutes. Be careful when opening the packets; the steam may be hot.
Chef Tip: Serve the Teriyaky Tuna over cooked brown rice.
