So My husband was actually the one who cooked this one, but I made the seasoning, so that counts, right? Anyways, Trader Joe's had good Ahi Tuna stakes on sale about two weeks ago and yesterday I finally thawed them in the fridge.
We usually just put some salt on our fish and call it good, but I wanted a little richer and spicier flavor. (plus we recently watched the Princess and the Frog, so Cajun spice was in the back of my mind)
Anyways, it was the perfect flavor for the tuna and made for a mouth-watering meal. It also tasted a lot better then I've had at a few restaurants.
Here's how to do:
Mix together 1/2 tablespoon salt with a healthy dash of cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, and black pepper with a smaller dash of onion and garlic powders.
preheat a good weighted skillet with a coating of olive oil over med-high heat.
Rub both sides of the tuna with the seasoning mixture.
Place in pan, reduce heat as needed (but keep in mind fish does well seared to start with. cook until just done.
Enjoy!
