Seared Tuna with Mango

Seared Tuna is an easy way to make an impressive meal. With a nice salsa and some rice this makes a great dinner.

Herb Seared Tuna

Tuna - about 4 -5 oz per person

1 Tbs Chili powder

1 tsb garlic powder

1/4 tsp cayenne

1/2 tsp allspice

1 tsp cumin

1/2 tsp coriander

salt and pepper

EVOO

Mix the spices together and generously coat the outside of the fish. Drizzle a touch of oil on the outside and rub to coat the entire surface.

Heat a dry pan over medium high heat until hot. Place the fish in the pan and cook a minute or so on each side. The idea is to cook the out side 1/4 inch or so. When done all sides remove and slice into thin slices.

Serve with mango salsa (see below) and rice.
