I've been working on that. I think it takes a super dry tuna steak, a VERY HOT cast iron skillet with come VERY HOT oil in it.

Tuna steaks are like chicken breasts. Very hard to hit that sweet spot. You tend to either under cook or over cook them.

Looks delicious.


Yep. I’ve not perfected them but have gotten better. I have found that seasoning after flipping really helps the steak to make contact with the pan and get a better sear.
