Instructions
Season the tuna steaks with salt and pepper on both sides.
In a shallow dish, pour the soy sauce and olive oil. Mix well.
Place the tuna steaks in the dish, coating them with the soy sauce and olive oil mixture. Let them marinate for about 10 minutes.
Heat a skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat.
Once the pan is hot, carefully place the tuna steaks in the pan. Sear each side for about 1-2 minutes, depending on your preferred level of doneness. For rare tuna, aim for a shorter cooking time. If you prefer it more well-done, you can cook it for a bit longer.
Once seared, remove the tuna steaks from the pan and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
Slice the tuna steaks into thin pieces. Serve the seared tuna slices on a plate. You can enjoy them as is or pair them with a side of steamed vegetables or a simple green salad.
