Seared Tuna Toro

Tuna Belly

Description

Tuna Toro is Tuna Belly:
This recipe is incredibly easy and delivers the most amazing flavors.  Tuna Toro is tuna belly and has such quality fat content.  It melts in your mouth.
Searing it for only 30-seconds a side is all you need, but it's so forgiving becuase of the fat content, you can cook it longer.  
I advise to only sear it for 30-seconds a side.
