Method

Pat the seafood very dry and season lightly.
Sear in a hot pan over medium-high heat: shrimp 1–2 minutes per side, scallops 2 minutes per side, salmon 3–4 minutes per side, tuna 45–60 seconds per side.
Warm or build the sauce separately so the seafood stays tender.
Plate with herbs, acid and oil, then serve right away.

Serve it with

Serving suggestion: pair with chilled sake, Champagne or a crisp mineral white wine.
