Spray 10-inch nonstick skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium-high heat. Sprinkle both sides of fish with seasoned salt. Add fish to skillet; reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook 6 to 8 minutes, turning once, until tuna is slightly pink in center. Remove fish from skillet and keep warm.

Fresh asparagus and lightly buttered new potatoes complement this citrus-flavored fish. For an easy yet elegant garnish, use orange slices and dill sprigs.
