    Pat the Ahi tuna steaks dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with blackening seasoning, salt, and black pepper.

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

    In a mixing bowl, combine the bleu cheese crumbles, sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and garlic powder.
