- To prepare the watermelon salsa, in a mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients and season with salt and pepper.
- To prepare spice blend, grind all spices in a mini food processor or possibly spice grinder they are powdery. Spread the spice mix proportionately on a large plate.
- Rinse the tuna fillets and pat dry. Place one side of each piece of tuna into the spice mix. Shake off excess.
- In a 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat 1 tsp. of extra virgin olive oil over high heat till almost smoking. Carefully place two of the tuna fillets, spiced-side down, into the skillet. A spice crust should form within 1 minute. Using kitchen tongs, turn over the tuna, lower the heat to medium, and cook for 2 to 5 min to desired doneness. Repeat the process with the remaining tuna fillets.
