Instructions
- 1
In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp coconut aminos, the grated ginger, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, and salt to make the marinade. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the marinade in a separate small bowl before adding the tuna — this reserved portion will be used to baste the fish during cooking. Place the tuna steaks in a shallow dish, pour the remaining marinade over them, and turn to coat. Let marinate at room temperature for 15 minutes.

While the tuna marinates, whisk together the sauce ingredients in a small bowl: 3 tbsp coconut aminos, lime juice, toasted sesame oil, grated ginger, and rice vinegar until combined. Set aside.
