Blackened Tuna Steaks

Dinner is ready in a flash with this recipe. Using my  Cajun Spice Rub that I have mixed in advance to have on hand for quick dinners. I can whip this up in less than 15 minutes.


INGREDIENTS

Tuna Steaks
Cajun Spice Rub (click for my recipe)
Small amount of oil for cooking


INSTRUCTIONS


Place Tuna Steaks on a large plate or cutting board.


Sprinkle liberally with the spice blend and pat in the spices with your hand. Flip and do the same on the other side.


Heat a small amount of oil in a non-stick or cast iron pan on medium high heat.


Cook quickly until Tuna blackens on the first side and then flip and cook the other side. It will depend on how hot you have your pan, but this should only take a couple of minutes on each side. Cook til desired doneness.


And Enjoy!



Note: Tuna is said to be best when cooked rare. It is up to your personnal preferences how well you cook it. Tuna has zero carbs. The spices will have some carbs, refer to the spice rub recipe to calculate how many you used.
