2)  Grind the seasoning on all sides of the fish.  Let it marinate for at least 20 minutes of up to 24 hours under refrigeration.As always, the more seasoning you put on your meat the more flavor you will get on the crust when the meat is finished.  The amount of seasoning shown in Figures 1 & 2, below, will get you a good medium flavor profile.

NOTE: One word of caution, these rubs are self-contained, meaning that they already have salt in them in the proper ratio to the spices and herbs, so don’t overdo it with grinding the rubs or add any additional salt. 

 NOTE:  Always buy your meats from a quality reputable stores.  Keep all meat under refrigeration as much as possible during preparation.  Don’t leave any meats out at room temperature for more than 30 minutes, except when you are ready to cook it.  Then let it just reach room temperature prior to cooking, but don’t let time exceed an hour.  Food safe guidelines recommend that any proteins (meats in this case) are not exposed to the “Temperature Danger Zone” (40 F. to 140 F) for more than 4 hours for its entire journey to you cooking it.  We are informing you of these food safety guidelines, because we want you to have a wonderful flavorful safe food experience, every time.

4)  Add a little oil to the sauté pan and add the seasoned fish.  The oil should be hot but not smoking.

5)  Sear for 3 to 4 minutes depending on the thickness of the fish.  Using a spatula, turn the fish over and continue to sauté for another 3 to 5 minutes for just cooked through fish.  Please do your family and friends a favor and don’t overcook the fish!  It will become dry if you cook it much past 145°F.  For tuna you might want to serve it rare to medium well, depending on your quests tastes.
