A quick and flavorful recipe for seared yellowfin tuna with a wasabi crust, perfect for a light and elegant meal.
Melt the butter in a small bowl in the microwave.
Ensure the butter is fully melted but not overheated to avoid burning.
Coat the tuna fillets with the melted butter on all sides.
Use a brush or your hands to evenly coat the tuna for a uniform crust.
Mix the wasabi powder, black pepper, and garlic powder in a small bowl.
Combine the spices thoroughly to ensure an even flavor distribution.
Sprinkle the seasoning mix over the tuna fillets and gently press it in.
Press the seasoning gently to help it adhere to the tuna.
Heat the olive oil in a heavy-bottomed frying pan over medium-high heat.
Ensure the pan is hot enough to sear the tuna quickly.
Sear the tuna fillets for 45 seconds on each side.
Avoid overcooking; the center should remain rare for the best texture.
Let the tuna rest for 2 minutes before serving.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, enhancing the flavor.
Serve the tuna fillets whole or sliced, with a drizzle of soy sauce.
For a complete meal, pair with steamed rice or a fresh salad.
