Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Generously coat tuna steaks on both sides with Cajun seasoning.
Step 2
Heat oil and butter in a large skillet over high heat until nearly smoking.
Step 3
Arrange tuna steaks in the skillet and cook until blackened on one side, about 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until desired doneness is reached, 3 to 4 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium-rare.
