3 Tbs    ground cinnamon  
3 Tbs    ancho chili powder  
3 Tbs    pasilla chili powder  
3 Tbs    ground cumin  
3 Tbs    ground coriander  
3 Tbs    ground ginger  
1 Tbs    ground cloves  
1 Tbs    ground fennel seed  
2 Tbs    garlic powder  
2 Tbs    onion powder  
1 Tbs    allspice  
1 tsp    chile de arbol  
3 Tbs    brown sugar  
2 Tbs    kosher salt  
2 Tbs    coarsely ground black pepper  
1 tsp    cayenne pepper  
4   tuna steaks, (6-ounce)  
2 Tbs    canola oil  
3 Tbs    Dijon mustard  
2 Tbs    honey  
1 Tbs    prepared horseradish, drained  
3   mint leaves, finely chopped  
  Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper  
 
1 Combine all of the spices in a bowl. Rub 1 side of each tuna steak with some of the rub. Heat oil in a large pan over high heat. Place the tuna in the pan, rub-side down, and cook until golden brown and the spices have formed a crust, about 2 minutes. Turn over and continue cooking for 1 to 2 minutes for rare doneness. Drizzle each steak with some of the Mustard-Mint Sauce.
2 To make the mint sauce whisk together the last five ingredients in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
