Greek-Style Herb Crusted Tuna Steak with Lemony Cucumber Salad
Enjoy a vibrant twist on tuna steak with a crisp and refreshing Mediterranean cucumber salad.

This balanced dish offers a refreshing burst of flavor with every bite.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Tuna Steak
1 medium Cucumber
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1/8 cup Red Onion (diced)
1 oz Feta Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 tbsp Fresh Herb mix
PREPARATION
Pat the tuna steak dry and pat on a mixture of finely chopped fresh herbs (parsley, oregano, dill) along with a pinch of salt and pepper to create the crust.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat with a drizzle of olive oil. Sear the tuna steak for about 2-3 minutes per side for a medium-rare finish, or longer to your preferred doneness.
While the tuna cooks, prepare the salad by thinly slicing the cucumber and combining it with halved cherry tomatoes and finely diced red onion in a bowl.
Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over the salad, then drizzle with lemon juice and the remaining olive oil. Gently toss to mix all flavors together.
Plate the herb-crusted tuna steak and serve alongside the fresh lemony cucumber salad. Garnish with a little extra fresh herb if desired, and enjoy immediately.
