Tuna Steaks

Here's a delicious way to cook tuna. Even my family--who tend to turn up there noses at tuna enjoyed this dish. 

4 - 5 oz tuna steaks, 1-inch thick
Olive Oil
2 teaspoons crushed rosemary
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Pat tuna with paper towel to remove excess moisture. Brush steaks with olive oil on both sides. Sprinkle with rosemary, salt, and pepper. Heat a large heavy skillet (cast iron works great) on medium-high heat. Add steaks to pan and sear on each side for 3-4 minutes, brushing with more oil before turning. Adjust the heat as needed, if the skillet gets too hot. Steaks should be opaque and slightly pink in the center. Sprinkle with fresh lemon juice before serving. Serves 4.
