Seared Sesame Crusted Tuna

This dish is a full proof recipe for you seafood lovers. It is hearty, healthy, and super simple to make. I love how the sesame crust is super crunchy on the outside and the tuna remains tender.

The simple flavors of this dish make it super easy to achieve at home. If you love tuna, give this recipe a try you will be sure to enjoy it.

For this dish, I wanted to keep it simple but still highlight the flavors of the tuna. My secret ingredient in this dish is the everything bagel seasoning for the crust. It gives it the perfect aroma and salty flavor to elevate the flavors of the tuna.
