A delightful and flavorful tuna steak recipe with a tangy citrus glaze.
Season the tuna steaks with sea salt and ground black pepper on both sides.
Let the tuna sit for a few minutes after seasoning to allow the flavors to penetrate.
Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Ensure the skillet is hot enough to sear the tuna properly.
Place the tuna steaks in the skillet and cook for 2 minutes on each side for a medium-rare center.
Avoid overcooking to maintain the tuna's tenderness.
Remove the tuna from the skillet and set aside.
Cover the tuna loosely with foil to keep it warm.
Add the balsamic vinegar and orange juice to the skillet, stirring to combine.
Scrape the bottom of the skillet to incorporate any browned bits into the glaze.
Cook the mixture over medium heat until it reduces to a syrupy consistency.
To test, drag a spoon through the glaze; it should leave a clear path.
Drizzle the glaze over the tuna steaks and serve immediately.
Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives for added color and flavor.
