Tuna is one of the more popular fish on the market. It is incredibly delicious, full of flavor and has great texture. Tuna is best served medium/rare to retain juiciness; you want to see a pink center. If you like tuna very rare, make sure to purchase sushi grade tuna.

This marinade is great for fish and chicken. We tried it on skinless dark chicken that we grilled with skewers and as a marinade for tuna. Both were delicious.

1 tablespoon cumin

2 tablespoons honey or agave nectar
