TUNA STEAK

Steps:

• Prepare resting tray: Place a rack on a tray. (Note 3)
• Oil and season tuna: Drizzle half the oil over the tuna. Smear over one side, then sprinkle with half the salt and pepper. Flip and repeat.
• Heat skillet: Heat skillet (preferably a skillet with grille lines) over high heat until smoking hot. The hotter, the better!
• Oil skillet (if required): If your skillet is not well-seasoned, brush skillet with olive oil or take pan off stove and spray with any oil (SAFETY WARNING! Note 4)
• Cook first side: Place tuna steak in the skillet (I do one at a time for best results, Note 5) and cook for 45 seconds.
• Rotate for grill lines: Turn steak 45 degree. Continue cooking another 45 seconds.
• Cook other side: Flip tuna carefully, then leave for 1 minute or until the internal temperature in the middle reads 48°C / 118°F (Note 6).
• Rest: Remove tuna from skillet and place on rack. Rest for 5 minutes - it will cool down almost to room temperature. This is desirable for easier slicing and better eating (Note 7) Serve! See Note 2 for sauce options.

Sprinkle the grated Parmesan over the asparagus and mushrooms. Roast the tuna and vegetables for 7-10 minutes or until the internal temperature of the tuna has reached 125 degrees F.
