Make the blackened seasoning. Mix the paprika, oregano, thyme, cayenne pepper, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder and salt in a shake top bottle, or small bowl. Preheat grill to high. Coat all sides of tuna steaks in a thick coating of blackening seasoning, pressing into the flesh of the fish. Spray one side with cooking spray. Place sprayed side down on grill grates. Close lid and cook 1-2 minutes. Open lid, spray other side of fish and flip. Cook 1-2 minutes more. Tuna is finished when outside edges are cooked but middle is still rare.
