INGREDIENTS
6 oz Tuna Steak
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Asparagus
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 tbsp Orange Juice
1 Garlic Clove
1 tbsp Mixed Fresh Herbs (Basil & Parsley)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the tuna steak dry with a paper towel and season both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, mix the chopped fresh herbs with the minced garlic.
Press the herb mixture onto the surface of the tuna steak, ensuring an even coating for the crust.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil.
Sear the tuna steak for about 1-2 minutes per side, keeping the center rare to medium-rare for optimal flavor and tenderness.
In a small saucepan, combine the orange juice with a pinch of salt and pepper. Allow it to simmer gently for 1-2 minutes until slightly reduced to form a light citrus glaze.
Prepare the asparagus by either steaming or lightly roasting it, seasoning with a little salt and pepper.
Plate the seared tuna alongside the served asparagus and sprinkle the cooked quinoa as a hearty side.
Drizzle the citrus glaze over the tuna and garnish with any remaining fresh herbs before serving.
