👨‍🍳 Instructions

Season the tuna steaks with salt and cayenne pepper.

Melt the butter with the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

Cook the peppercorns in the mixture until they soften and pop, about 5 minutes.

Gently place the seasoned tuna in the skillet and cook to desired doneness, 1 1/2 minutes per side for rare.
