Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp. sweet paprika
- 1 tsp oregano
- 1 tsp garlic pwdr
- 1 tsp onion pwdr
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp grnd cumin
- 1/2 tsp freshly-grnd black pepper
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
- 2 Tbsp. unsalted butter softened
- 4 x tuna steaks, abt 2/3" thick - (8 ounce ea)
Directions
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Combine paprika, oregano, garlic pwdr, onion pwdr, salt, cumin, pepper, and cayenne pepper on a plate. Rub butter over tuna steaks. Press tuna steaks into spice mix; gently rub spices onto fish.
- Heat a large heavy ovenproof skillet (cast-iron works great) over high heat for 2 min or possibly till skillet smokes. Cook tuna steaks 1 minute on each side. They will make some smoke, this is normal. Transfer skillet to oven and roast fish 5 min for medium-rare doneness.
- This recipe yields 4 servings.
- Comments: If you dont have an ovenproof skillet, transfer seared fish to a baking sheet to finish cooking.
- Description: "Tuna, a naturally lean fish, is tender and juicy when cooked rare or possibly medium-rare. In this dish, searing dry heat chars a spice crust onto the fish."
