Easy Garlic Butter Tuna in 10 Minutes

Instructions:

1. Pat the tuna steaks completely dry using paper towels. Note: Moisture creates steam, which stops the crust from forming.
2. Season generously with salt and cracked black pepper on all sides, including the edges.
3. Heat the avocado oil in a cast iron skillet over high heat until it just begins to smoke.
4. Carefully place the tuna in the pan.
5. Sear for 1.5 to 2 minutes without moving them until a dark brown crust forms.
6. Flip the steaks and sear for another 1.5 to 2 minutes for medium rare.
7. Reduce the heat to medium.
8. Add the butter and minced garlic. Wait 30-60 seconds until the butter foams and smells nutty.
9. Tilt the pan and spoon the sizzling garlic butter over the tuna repeatedly.
10. Finish with a squeeze of lemon juice and a sprinkle of fresh parsley.
