Prep time: 10 min
Cook time: 8 min
Serves: 4
Ingredients:
- 1 lb Albacore tuna loin
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- For the rub/crust:
- 1/2 tbsp paprika
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp dried leaf oregano
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- A heavy-bottomed pan big enough to cook your whole loin
Directions:
- Pat your loin dry so that your crust will adhere.
- Rub with a bit of olive oil then season with sea salt, then roll in your crust rub.
- Heat your pan for 4 minutes, then add oil.
- When it shimmers, lay your loin on the pain for 30 seconds per side – all three sides. Your crust will get dark and crispy, this is good.
- Turn and repeat so the outside is uniformly cooked.
- Remove and slice crosswise into 1/3″ slices with a very sharp (serrated works well) knife.
- Serve on/with rice, potatoes, salad or roasted veggies.
ENJOY!
