SPICY TUNA STEAK





1 teaspoon coriander seeds


1 teaspoon mustard seeds


1 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning


Half teaspoon wasabi powder


Salt and pepper to taste


2 8-oz. tuna steaks


Sesame oil as needed





Grind the coriander and mustard seeds in a spice grinder and then combine with the lemon-pepper seasoning and wasabi powder. Brush the tuna steaks with sesame oil and then sprinkle with the seasoning mix and salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet and then add some sesame oil. Make sure the skillet and oil are very hot. Add the tuna steaks and sear each side until desired doneness. This will vary with the thickness of the steak and how red you like it in the center. If the steak is thicker than a half-inch and you like it rare, you won鈥檛 need more than two minutes a side.
