Tuna steaks

[Oldfart9999]

Cooking tuna steaks is the easiest fish going. You need top quality tuna at least an inch thick 11/2 inches or more is better, a cast iron frying pan some light olive oil and salt and pepper. Put the pan on the fire with the oil and let it get HOT, salt and pepper the tuna on both sides, when the pan is scorching lay the steaks in, watch the color move up, this step is extremely important, when it cooks about a 1/4 of the way up flip it, check out the beautiful sear, and do the same. Tuna should be pink to red for best flavor.

Thank you! I buy sushi quality a few times a year. Only a few ounces at a time as it is expensive. I eat it raw.  I feel most sea critters need to be cooked with touch of gently warmed meat left in the middle.

The tuna steaks are a once or twice a year deal at best, you most certainly are right, it's expensive!!

Flame grilled Tuna steak would be my "death bed" meal.
Cooked same as above except on a open HOT grill with Mesquite wood and extremely rare.

Love me some tuna steaks.

I was deployed to a small island in the middle of the Indian Ocean. When the weather was right and everything lined up, we could catch tuna. Then grilled them on open fires and such. Seasoned with what we had shipped over, it didn't matter much. Fresh Tuna is awesome.
