Ingredients

4 slices ahi tuna about 6 ounces each
3-4 tbsps Secolari Blood Orange Olive Oil
1 clove of garlic smashed and minced
2-3 tbsps Secolari Champagne Mimosa Vinegar
1 zest orange
1/2 -1 juice of orange
2-3 tbsps toasted pistachio roughly chopped
1 to taste Secolari Fleur de Sel Sea Salt
1 to taste white pepper

Instructions

In a shallow non-aluminum bowl, combine the vinegar, juice, zest, garlic, salt and pepper. Whisk with the oil, a little at a time, until well incorporated. Coat the tuna with the marinade and marinate for 2-4 hours, refrigerated, turning occasionally.
Remove the tuna from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking, pat dry. Heat a large skillet with a tiny drizzle of oil. Cook the tuna on medium-high heat about 4-5 minutes per side for rare to medium doneness. Place the cooked tuna on a serving plate.
Place the remaining juice from the marinade in the skillet where the tuna was cooked and reduce by half until slightly thick on medium-low. Taste for seasoning. Drizzle the marinade on top of the cooked tuna. Top with toasted pistachios.
