½ cup sweet chili sauce
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
¼ teaspoon pepper
½ teaspoon salt
Instructions

3.Add tuna and marinate in the refrigerator for abput 2 hours, turning fish occasionally in the marinade. Drain tuna, reserving the liquid.
4.In a sauce pot, bring the marinade to a boil for about 4 to 5 minutes or until reduced.
5. On lightly-greased grates over hot coals, arrange tuna in a single layer and grill.
6. When it starts to lose its pink, begin basting with the marinade.
7. Continue to cook for about 3 to 5 minutes on each side, basting regularly, or until fish flakes easily with a fork and slightly caramelized.
8. Remove from heat and serve hot.
Notes:
Panga or tuna jaw is a good substitute for belly.
For food safety, boil the marinade for about 4 to 5 minutes or until thickened before using for basting.
To keep the fish from charring too much, grill until it begins to lose its pink before basting.
