Tuna, Cajun Blackened - Atkins Recipe
Ingredients:
2 tbsp butter,unsalted, softened
4 steak (8 oz) tuna, (about 2/3' thick each)
SPICE MIXTURE
1 tbsp sweet paprika
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper, (optional)
Instructions:
Tuna, a naturally lean fish, is tender and juicy when cooked rare or
medium-rare. In this dish, searing dry heat chars a spice crust onto the
fish. If you dont have an ovenproof skillet, transfer seared fish to a
baking sheet to finish cooking.
1. Heat oven to 400º F. Combine paprika, oregano, garlic powder, onion
powder, salt, cumin, pepper, and cayenne pepper on a plate. Rub butter over
tuna steaks. Press tuna steaks into spice mixture; gently rub spices onto
fish.
2. Heat a large heavy ovenproof skillet (cast iron works great) over high
heat for 2 minutes or until skillet smokes. Cook tuna steaks 1 minute on
each side. They will make some smokethis is normal. Transfer skillet to
oven and roast fish 5 minutes for medium rare doneness.
