Seared Tuna With Citrus Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 1/2 lbs tuna steaks, about 6 oz each
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    8 ounces fresh arugula (or more)
    4 tablespoons soy sauce
    3 tablespoons orange juice
    1 tablespoon lemon juice
    1 orange, zest of, grated
    1 lemon zest, only grated
    3 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed
    1 1/2 inches fresh ginger, grated
    2 oranges, in segments (remove white pith)
    3 teaspoons sugar
    1 inch dried chilies, crumbled or 1 small chili pepper, chopped, seeds removed
    salt
Preparation
    Mix together the ingredients from the soy sauce down to the chilli pepper, stir well, and stand for a while for flavours to mix.
    Put in a suitable container in a warming oven to just warm through.
    Brush the tuna steaks with the olive oil and just sear quickly on both sides in a hot griddle pan over very high heat for rare meat -- or cook to your liking. Use salt to taste.
    Arrange the arugula on 4 plates, top each with a tuna steak, and drizzle the citrus sauce with orange segments over each serving.
    Serve immediately -- but can be served cold.
