1 T. olive oil

1 T. butter

1 t. peppercorns

2 ~4-6 oz. tuna steaks

salt, pepper, cayenne, paprika, lemon pepper, etc., as desired

Pat fish dry and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and/or other desired seasonings.

Heat over medium-high heat until peppercorns begin popping.

Cook tuna steaks 1-2 minutes per side, depending on thickness. The center should still be rare.
