In a small saucepan, combine the rice, water, and a pinch of the salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest covered for 5 minutes.
While the rice simmers, heat a skillet over medium-high heat with half the oil. Add the asparagus and a pinch of salt. Cook, turning occasionally, for 6 to 8 minutes until tender and lightly charred. Remove to a plate.
Rub the tuna steak with the remaining oil, the black pepper, and the remaining salt. In the same hot skillet, sear the tuna for 2 minutes. Flip and sear for 2 minutes more, or until it reaches 145°F and flakes easily.
Fluff the rice with a fork and place on the plate alongside the asparagus and seared tuna steak.
