Description
It may seem simple, but it’s my favorite way to have tuna. Seared fish steaks are a Cajun tradition.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds fresh tuna steaks, 1 inch thick
- 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions
- Generously coat tuna steaks on both sides with Cajun seasoning.
- Heat oil and butter in a large skillet over high heat until nearly smoking.
- Arrange tuna steaks in the skillet and cook until blackened on one side
- about 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until desired doneness is reached
- 3 to 4 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium-rare.
