Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 360 degrees F for 3-5 minutes.
- Dry the raw tuna steaks with paper towels. Then drizzle them with oil and season with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Place the steaks in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
- Cook the steaks at 360 degrees F for 2 minutes - this is for medium rare tuna. See the notes section for other doneness options.
- Flip the steaks to the other side and air fry for another 2 minutes.
- After another 2 minutes, the steak is ready. Let it rest on a plate for 2-3 minutes before serving.
- Cut the tuna steak into slices, drizzle with lemon juice and serve.
Notes
- If using frozen steak defrost it completely before air frying.
- Suggest doneness for tuna steak:
- Rare | 110-115 degrees F | 2 minutes per side
- Medium rare | 125-130 degrees F | 3 minutes per side
- Medium | 135-145 degrees F | 4 minutes per side
- Well done | over 145 degrees F | 5 minutes per side
- Note that the FDA recommends against eating seafood under 145 degrees F.
