TV Dinner: Marinated Tuna Steaks

WATERTOWN, New York (WWNY) - Chef Chris Manning prepared a great dish for Lenten Friday: Marinated Tuna Steaks.

But, he says, the marinade can also be used for chicken, pork, or even beef.

He cautions that when you’re using citrus, you should marinate fish no more than four hours. Other meats can be marinated overnight.

The chef also suggests using herbs in a tube to avoid a lot of chopping.
