Pat the skipjack tuna fillet dry with paper towels and season generously with sea salt and black pepper on all sides.

Kuharjeva opomba: Ensuring the tuna is very dry helps achieve a better sear.

Heat the vegetable oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet or cast-iron pan over high heat until it just begins to smoke.
Približno 2 min
Kuharjeva opomba: A very hot pan is crucial for a good sear and crunchy crust.

Carefully place the seasoned tuna fillet in the hot pan and sear for 30-60 seconds on each of its four sides, creating a dark brown crust while keeping the center raw.
Približno 4 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Adjust cooking time based on the thickness of your tuna and desired doneness for the crust.

Immediately remove the seared tuna from the pan and transfer it to a plate. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes.
Približno 10 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Resting helps the tuna retain its juices and makes for easier, cleaner slicing.

While the tuna rests, prepare the dressing by whisking together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, lemon juice, grated ginger, and minced garlic in a small bowl.
Približno 3 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Taste the dressing and adjust the balance of flavors to your preference.

Slice the rested tuna very thinly, about 0.5 cm thick, against the grain.
Približno 3 min
