Steps:
- With a sharp knife, cut the tuna into 4 large pieces for appetizer portion, 2 large pieces for dinner portion. Use your judgment on what shape you want to cut your tuna because not all tuna is the same size or shape. However, the shape should somewhat resemble a miniature brick.
- Season the tuna pieces with salt and pepper. Coat lightly on all sides with bread crumbs. Heat olive oil in a large heavy skillet over high heat. The pan should be as hot as you can get it. Place the tuna in the pan, and sear on each side for about 45 seconds for small portions, or 1 minute for large. Remove from pan. The tuna will be very rare.
- Slice each 'brick' into 1/4 inch thick slices, and fan out on a serving plate. Enjoy plain, or with the condiments of your choice.

Steps:
- Rub the tuna with the oil. Season well with salt and pepper.
- Heat a heavy pan over high heat; throw the tuna in the pan and sear it for just a few minutes on each side. You want the middle to be rare. (If you insist on cooking it through, just make sure you don't overcook it). Slice and serve.

Steps:
- Pat the ahi tuna steaks dry with a paper towel. Place on a plate or inside a plastic bag.
- Mix the soy sauce (2 tablespoons), toasted sesame oil (1 tablespoon), honey (1 tablespoon) kosher salt (1/2 teaspoon- OMIT if marinating for more than a couple hours, see notes), pepper (1/4 teaspoon), and cayenne pepper (1/4 teaspoon) until honey is fully dissolved. Pour over the ahi tuna steaks and turn over to coat completely. Optional: allow to marinate for at least 10 minutes, or up to overnight in the refrigerator. Also optional: Reserve a spoonful or two of the marinade before coating the fish for drizzling on top after you've cooked it.
- Heat a medium skillet (preferably non-stick or a well-seasoned cast iron skillet) on medium-high to high until very hot ( or medium medium-high for nonstick). I recommend giving cast iron 3-5 minutes to get hot and nonstick about 1 minute, depending on how thick it is.
- Add the canola oil (1 tablespoon) to the hot pan. Sear the tuna for 2 minutes on each side for medium rare (1.5 minutes on each side for rare; 3 on each side for medium). (Note: different burners get hotter depending on your stove. Use your best judgement whether you use medium, medium-high, or high heat, as the marinade may burn if too high heat is used).
- Remove to a cutting board and allow to rest for at least 3 minutes. Slice into 1/2 inch slices and serve garnished with green onions, toasted sesame seeds, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice, if desired.

SEARED AHI (BBQ TUNA STEAKS)
I've had this dish at many different restaurants. Almost all had done a great job at the preparation as its an easy meal to make. Garlic mashed potatoes really complete this dish.

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a bowl or plate large enough to hold the tuna steak Place tuna steak in bowl, coating both sides with butter Sprinkle half of cajun seasoning on each side of steak For an extra spicy treat, add black pepper.
- I recommend cooking this outdoors on your grill.
- Cooking indoors will generate excessive smoke.
- Heat your grill to the highest possible temperature Turn off burners (to avoid flame up) then immediately add steak Cook for 2 minutes on first side Flip and cook on other side for 1 minute.
- (The steak will be very pink inside - yum!) Remove and serve immediately as it will cool quickly.
- I recommend serving over garlic mashed potatoes with either wasabi mustard or wasabi mustard/mayo mix.
- Enjoy!
SEARED AHI MARINADE
I wanted a recipe that was similar to the ones I have had a restaurant in the past. I searched the site and found some good sauces for seared ahi- but just not what I was looking for. I found one a lot like I was looking for at Simple Recipes- I tweeked it a bit and I'm posting it here for safe keeping because it was so yummy!! Mind you- it was fresh, wild caught ahi- which can make a difference. I'll let you know how it goes with frozen fish, should I break down and try it (but with two avid ocean fisherman in the neighborhood hood, it will be a desperate move!)

Steps:
- Mix the sesame oil, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, green onion and lime juice in a non metal bowl. Add ahi and coat , cover tightly, and refrigerate for about an hour.
- Toast the sesame seeds in a pan until light brown (I prefer a blend of white and black sesame seeds- the black ones are hard to find, try an asian market). Remove seeds and allow to cool on a flat plate (you will use this plate to dredge the tuna in)- add cracked pepper.
- Add olive oil to a skillet and allow it to get HOT.
- Dredge the ahi in the sesame seeds and pepper to coat and add to the hot pan.
- Cook only two or three minutes on each side so that the ahi is seared on the outside and rare on the inside.
- Serve with white rice and green beans that have been either roasted or cooked and drizzled with sesame oil. Sprinkle any extra sesame seeds over the top.
- garnish with remaining green onion and ENJOY!
SEARED AHI TUNA
Serve with recipe #529323 (Ginger Soy Dipping Sauce). Inspired by: http://www.allaboutsushiguide.com Having the ahi at room temperature ensures the center isn't too chilled due to the short sear time.

Steps:
- Combine the kosher salt (NOT table salt) coriander, paprika, cayenne pepper and black pepper in a bowl. Mix well and set aside.
- Combine black and white sesame seeds in another bowl and set aside.
- With paper toweling, pat the excess moisture from the ahi tuna pieces.
- Generously rub the seasoning mixture all over tuna, pressing into the tuna without mashing it.
- Next, press the mixed sesame seeds into the tuna, covering it all over.
- Place a heavy bottomed non-stick or cast iron skillet on medium high heat. Add the oil and distribute it evenly all over the pan surface.
- When the oil begins to smoke slightly and/or is starting to swirl, place the tuna in the pan.
- Cook for approximately 45 seconds on each side.
- Lastly, using tongs, cook the ends and (cut) sides for 20 seconds each.
- Remove from heat. Slice to desired thickness (preferably using a very sharp sashimi knife) and serve.
