Ahi Tuna Steaks

Ahi Tuna is a great substitute for chicken, depending on how you cook it, its very similar in taste and texture. To marinate the tuna steaks in a small bowl I mixed in the following ingredients: oil of your choice, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, cajun seasoning, salt + pepper, paprika, tumeric, cumin and some cayenne pepper depending on how spicy you want your dish to be. Mixing all the ingredients in a bowl I spread the mixture on both sides of the tuna. Next step is to drizzle some sesame oil on your frying pan. You want the temperature of your stove on medium high in order to sear the outside of your steaks. Lower the heat of your burner to low and leave on the stove to cook the steaks well done. Be sure to flip your tuna steaks so it cooks evenly through. This could be a meal on its own accompanied by a side dish such as steamed garlic asparagus or mashed potatoes, however I used them for a tuna taco dish.
