Doug’s Tuna Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Tuna

   Rub the tuna steaks with olive oil and coat them evenly with Cajun seasoning. Let them marinate for about 15 minutes.

2. 2

   Blacken the Tuna

   Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat until it is very hot. Add the tuna steaks and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are charred and cooked to your preferred doneness. Remove from skillet and let rest.

3. 3

   Make the Citrus Buerre Blanc

   In a saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the shallots and sauté until translucent. Pour in the white wine and let it reduce by half. Add the lemon and orange juice, then gradually whisk in the remaining butter until the sauce is smooth and emulsified. Season with salt and white pepper to taste.

4. 4

   Serve

   Slice the blackened tuna and plate it. Drizzle the citrus buerre blanc over the top and serve immediately.
