For an enhanced teriyaki flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of honey or maple syrup to the marinade. If you don't have Chinese rice wine, dry sherry makes an excellent substitute. Be careful not to overcook the tuna. It should be slightly pink in the center for the best texture and flavor. For a smoky flavor, try grilling over wood chips like hickory or mesquite. Leftover grilled tuna can be flaked and used in salads, sandwiches, or sushi bowls.
