Herb-Crusted Seared Tuna with Citrus Glaze
Enjoy a dazzling plate of seared tuna with an herb crust that pairs exquisitely with a bright citrus glaze. This dish delivers tender, perfectly cooked tuna complemented by a fresh spinach and avocado salad, creating a harmonious balance of flavors, textures, and vibrant colors.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Tuna Steak
1/2 tsp each of dried thyme, oregano, and basil
Salt and Pepper to taste
2 tbsp Fresh Orange Juice
1 tsp Fresh Lemon Juice
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 cup Baby Spinach
1 quarter Avocado
PREPARATION
Pat the tuna steak dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt, pepper, and evenly sprinkle the dried thyme, oregano, and basil to form a light herb crust.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and let it warm up.
Carefully place the tuna steak in the skillet and sear for about 1.5-2 minutes on each side for a rare to medium-rare finish, depending on your preferred doneness.
In a small bowl, mix together the fresh orange juice and lemon juice to create the citrus glaze.
Once the tuna is seared, remove it from the pan and drizzle the citrus glaze over the top, allowing the warmth of the tuna to slightly cook the glaze and meld the flavors.
Arrange the baby spinach on a plate and top with sliced avocado quarters. Season lightly with salt and a squeeze of lemon if desired.
Slice the tuna and serve alongside the fresh spinach and avocado salad. Enjoy the blend of the herbaceous tuna with the bright, citrusy glaze.
