    Sear the Tuna

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the tuna steaks with salt and black pepper. Add olive oil to the skillet and sear the tuna for about 1-2 minutes on each side for rare. Remove from heat.

    Assemble the Dish

    On each plate, lay down the fried green tomatoes, top with arugula, place the seared tuna, sprinkle with blue cheese crumbles and crispy pork rinds. Drizzle with BBQ red pepper vinaigrette.
