My Mom gave this tuna steak recipe to me back when Jason and I were eating seafood. It was one of our favorite dishes until we became vegetarians. The tuna is topped with a tangy, sweet salsa that combines tomato, onion, balsamic vinegar and orange marmalade. I can’t provide a photo since we no longer eat tuna, but I promise this is very good!
