1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

1
Mix together ingredients 2 through 5 to make a marinade.

Pour the two oils into a frying pan, preferably non-stick or anodized, and heat over low-medium flame.

Place the tuna steaks in the hot oil.
5
Pour one teaspoon corn starch onto each tuna steak, then one teaspoon sesame seeds and half the fresh ground black pepper.

After about 4 minutes, flip the steak over. Cover the other side with 1 teaspoon sesame seeds and the rest of the fresh ground black pepper.
7
Cook for another 3-4 minutes.
8
Flip the tuna steak over one last time for about 1 min to toast the sesame seeds.
9
Let rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
