2 tuna steaks, about 1" thick
Rinse and pat dry tuna steaks.
Mix lime zest with salt, pepper, and thyme. Lightly coat steaks with olive oil and pat on lime mix, both sides.
Heat a thin layer of olive oil in non-stick pan. Sear tuna steaks 1 minute on each side. This will leave the tuna rare in the center. Please do not over-cook since it will get tough.
Pour lime juice over steaks immediately after removing from pan.
Poster's Notes:
I served this on a bed of steamed rice with a side salad. Fabulous!
