Preparation Steps

Prepare the Tuna
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the tuna steaks with salt and pepper on both sides. Once the oil is hot, add the tuna steaks and sear for about 1-2 minutes on each side, until the outside is browned but the inside remains medium-rare. Remove from heat and let rest.
