"I'm gonna put some lemon on there to protect the fish."

Tuna: "Gee thanks.."

I just made this (Corriander, Fennel, Salt, Pepper) + I added Sesame seeds - it was incredible. Added the olive oil after I took it off to keep it moist + fresh lemon juice - my daughter absolutely loved it - and she 'hates' fish. Thank you for this.

Chefspeak translation:
"a little drizzle of oil" - half a bottle
"a pinch of salt" - a tablespoon
"a bit of coriander" - a full bunch

I have used this rub recipe repeatedly. It is so delicious! My husband is a sportfisherman, so all ours is line caught and fresh fresh fresh.... I grow coriander (cilantro) and fennel in my little backyard. Never thought of using it on the tuna. Thank you @Jamie Oliver

Just made a lovely variation of the pan cooked method using the following-
Salt ground pepper basil cilantro cayenne and garlic for the rub

Then I cooked each side for about 1:30 minutes in avocado oil with a splash of patron tequila

Finally garnished with fresh basil leaves and lemon juice

No cap one of the best pieces of fish I’ve ever tasted

I followed your instructions and it was actually really good! I've never cooked a tasty tuna steak (it's always kind of... subpar), but these spices made them taste great. I will definitely be making this again in the future.

I made a parsley + capers + lemon zest sauce with olive oil, lemon juice salt and pepper, and I put this sauce over the cooked tuna, and basted it with the extra oil, it was out of this world delicious.

"add some lemon to protect the fish."

Lemon: In sourest day, in Sweetest night, No evil shall escape my might.
Let those who worship evils might, BEWARE my power....CITRUS MIGHT!!!

Done this before, it's really good and pretty healthy too.
I drizzled a touch of soy sauce & olive oil mixture to finish it off...trust me its soo juicy...

My daughter bought tuna . I’ve never cooked it before and I googled it and came across you, simple recipe loved it❤

[thetaxladies]

I don’t know what my family would do without your videos. I practically learned all my fish skill through your YouTube videos. Thank you.

Seared tuna this way twice already - absolutely gorgeous! Thank you for the recipe. The spices take it to another level!

[Wizman]

Thanks, I was planning on cooking some tuna steaks I seen at the grocery store but my mom told me to research different ways to cook it and this is perfectly simple, easy, and delicious! Thanks!

I never cared much for fresh tuna until I used this recipe. Now I love it. For me, what's important is going heavy on the spice rub, especially the pepper. That just gives it such a burst of flavors, that meld perfectly with the tuna. And of course, don't overcook. Those complaining that the tuna is raw- if you cook it all the way through, it gets dry and tough. I've eaten it this way dozens of times and never been made ill. Also, what are all the complaints about olive oil for? I find that last splash of olive oil helps marry all the flavors together, and creates a sauce of sorts that is just delicious.

Never usually comment but I've got to say thanks to Jamie I have just cooked the best Tuna steak I've ever tasted!! Thank you

"A little drizzle of olive oil" - Covers the steak with a pool of olive oil. Okay.

[antoniovargas]

He says if you want to cook it longer you can.  I did and it came out fantastic!  Making some tonight, again!  Love this recipe Jamie!

[Roads]

I like how chefs say alittle drizzle and it always looks like more than that lol

[laurah]

I’m not an experienced cook, but this turned out great! Thanks for your instructions. And I found tuna with that sustainable symbol on the back of the package.
I paired it with a simple little salad. Leafy greens, cucumbers, red bell pepper and sliced avocado.
