Let's Cook

  1. Step 1.

    Start with 1 or 2 1-inch thick tuna steaks.

  2. Step 2.

    In a mortar and pestle, combine 1 tsp coriander, a pinch of salt, a pinch of fennel, and pepper; grind together.

  3. Step 3.

    Pre-heat pans to high.

  4. Step 4.

    Season a board with the spice mixture.

  5. Step 5.

    Place steaks on the board and massage in a bit of olive oil.

  6. Step 6.

    Place tuna in a non-stick or griddle pan.

  7. Step 7.

    Grill for 1.5 to 2 minutes each side until seared. Watch the sides; if it cooks over 50% through the first side, it is overdone.

  8. Step 8.

    Let it rest for 1-2 minutes when done.

  9. Step 9.

    Sprinkle on some lemon and oil (or better yet, lemon oil).
