Equipment

  • Large skillet.
  • Kitchen tongs.
  • Paper towels
  • Small bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 2 TUNA STEAKS
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Black Pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice

Instructions
 

  • Pat the tuna steaks dry with paper towels. Remove all the moisture from the surface. This helps the fish sear perfectly.
  • Mix your spices in a small bowl. Rub the oil over both sides of fish. Sprinkle the spice mix on the tuna.
  • Heat your skillet over medium-high heat. Add a little oil to the pan. Wait until the oil is very hot.
  • Place the tuna in the hot skillet carefully. Do not move it for two minutes. This creates a beautiful brown crust.
  • Flip the tuna steaks over using your tongs. Cook for two more minutes on this side. The center should still be slightly pink.
  • Remove the steaks from the hot pan immediately. Let them rest on a plate for a bit. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top.
