SAVORY PAN-SEARED TUNA STEAKS
These marinated tuna steaks, served rare, taste 'fancy' but are very easy to cook. Even my husband, who doesn't like most cooked fish, enjoys these steaks. A sprinkling of cracked black pepper is a good finisher for this dish.

JASON'S 4 MINUTE TUNA STEAKS RECIPE - (5/5)

Steps:
- Marinade (30 minutes to 2 hours before serving) Mix all ingredients on the left (except tuna) in a non-reactive bowl that is just big enough to hold the steaks in one layer. Add the steaks and turn them to coat. They should be sitting very tightly in the bowl. If you don't have the bowl of appropriate size, just pour the marinade into a large zip loc freezer bag, add the steaks, squeeze all the air out and close the bag. If marinating only for 30 minutes leave the fish at room temperature. If marinating longer than that, keep it in the fridge removing to room temperature 30 minutes before cooking. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Set a large frying pan on med-high heat. Remove tuna from the marinade and dry on paper towels. When the pan is hot, pour 2 Tbsp of oil from the marinade into the skillet. Add tuna steaks to a pan. Shake the pan couple of times so that steaks don't stick. Sear 2.5 minutes on one side. Flip and sear 1.5 minutes on the other side. This will cook 1/4" of tuna on each side and leave the rest rare. If you like your tuna more cooked through, cover the pan, turn down the heat to medium and cook flipping the steaks half way until desired doneness. Sprinkle the steaks with rosemary, pour the pan juices over them, or top with garlic herb butter, and serve.
