Does anyone have a basic seared Ahi Tuna recipe?

I am looking for a basic recipe whether it be pan seared or grill seared. I love this this stuff and never made it at home. Most recipes on the web are all fancy. I don't care about presentation.





Thank you and have a nice evening.Does anyone have a basic seared Ahi Tuna recipe?

Ingredients:





1 ahi tuna steak, 6 ounces


2 teaspoons five-spice powder, available on spice aisle


1 teaspoon grill seasoning, such as Montreal Steak Seasoning, or salt and coarse pepper


Cooking spray or vegetable oil, for brushing the grill pan





Directions


Coat your steak with a combination of five-spice powder and grill seasoning or salt and pepper. Heat a grill pan or griddle over high heat. Spray grill surface or wipe with a thin layer of oil. Add tuna steak to the hot cooking surface and sear tuna 2 minutes on each side. Remove tuna from heat.





Slice tuna on an angle and eat!



I never made it myself because you just can't get fresh ahi tuna here in NY. But this sounds easy and good.





1 lb very fresh tuna, cut 1 inch thick (2 steaks)


2 tablespoons melted butter


1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper


1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic powder


2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil





Directions


Melt butter in a small casserole dish (in a microwave).


Place tuna steaks into the melted butter and coat all sides.


In a small bowl, mix together coarse black pepper and granulated garlic powder.


Heat olive oil and any left over butter in a heavy-bottom frying pan on medium-high heat.


Add tuna steaks and sear for 45 seconds, then turn over and sear for another 45 seconds.


DO NOT OVERCOOK TUNA STEAKS.


Just make sure that you have a light crust on each side.


Let fish rest for 2 minutes before slicing.


You may serve whole or cut into thin slices.


Serve on cooked rice
Try rolling the tuna steak in toasted pecans or pistachios. Serve with brown rice or wild rice and asparagus slightly crispy. You can also serve with couscous.
