Ingredients

1 medium pink grapefruit
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup lime juice
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon snipped fresh dill or 1 teaspoon dill weed
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 teaspoons minced fresh gingerroot
4 tuna steak or fillets (6 ounces each)

Directions

Pour remaining marinade into a large resealable plastic bag; add the tuna steaks. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 30 minutes, turning once.
Coat grill rack with cooking spray before starting the grill. Drain and discard marinade from tuna.
