Ingredients

2 medium oranges, juiced
1 medium lime, juiced
1 medium lemon, juiced
¼ cup diced red onion
2 tablespoons minced habanero pepper
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 pinch dried oregano
½ cup cubed mango
¼ cup diced red onion
1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro

2 (4 ounce) tuna steaks
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
5 ounces kettle-cooked potato chips
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon sweet chili sauce
1 cup hot cooked jasmine rice

Steps:

Prepare marinade: Whisk orange juice, lime juice, lemon juice, red onion, habanero pepper, vinegar, garlic, and oregano together in a bowl large enough to hold the tuna steaks.
Prepare salsa: Combine mango, red onion, cilantro, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl. Set aside.
Prepare tuna: Sprinkle tuna with salt and pepper. Place in the bowl with the marinade and turn to coat. Marinate for about 30 minutes.
While tuna is marinating, crush potato chips as fine as possible in a blender. Transfer to a bowl.
Remove tuna from the marinade and press into the crushed chips until both sides are well coated.
Heat heavy-bottomed nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add butter and heat until butter melts and foam subsides. Add tuna and sear for 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Remove from the skillet.
To serve, top tuna with chile sauce and serve with jasmine rice and mango salsa.

Tips:

Choose fresh, high-quality tuna steaks. Look for steaks that are bright red in color and have a firm texture. Avoid steaks that are brown or have a slimy texture.
Marinate the tuna steaks before cooking. This will help to add flavor and moisture to the steaks. You can use a variety of marinades, such as a simple olive oil and lemon juice marinade, or a more complex marinade made with herbs, spices, and citrus.
Cook the tuna steaks over high heat. This will help to sear the outside of the steaks and keep them from drying out. Cook the steaks for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are cooked to your desired doneness.
Let the tuna steaks rest before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steaks, making them more tender and flavorful.
Serve the tuna steaks with your favorite sides. Some popular sides for tuna steaks include roasted vegetables, grilled asparagus, or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

Tuna steaks are a delicious and versatile fish that can be cooked in a variety of ways. By following these tips, you can cook tuna steaks that are perfectly cooked and full of flavor. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give tuna steaks a try!
