My favorite way to eat tuna, but the spice mix works well with blackened chicken or other types of firm fish.
Ingredients:
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon fresh thyme (minced)
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon fennel seed (crushed)
4 tuna steaks
2 tablespoons olive oil
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 deg.
2. Mix first 7 ingredients in small bowl.
3. Place steaks on baking sheet, brush on both sides with 1 T. oil. Sprinkle top of each with seasoning.
4. Heat heavy large skillet over high heat until very hot. Add remaining 1 T. oil; swirl to coat.
