Herb-Crusted Seared Tuna with Citrus Slaw
Experience a delightful culinary twist with this seared tuna dish, perfectly accented by a zesty citrus slaw. The tuna is lightly crusted with fresh herbs and quickly seared to lock in flavor and moisture, while the vibrant slaw offers a refreshing medley of tangy orange segments and crisp cabbage dressed in a light lemon-olive oil vinaigrette.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Tuna Steak
2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
3 tbsp Fresh Parsley, chopped
2 tbsp Fresh Thyme, chopped
1 cup shredded Green Cabbage
1/2 medium Orange, segmented
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tbsp finely chopped Red Onion
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, combine the chopped parsley, thyme, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil into the herb mix to form a paste.
Pat the tuna steak dry with a paper towel. Rub the herb paste evenly over the tuna, ensuring a nice crust forms on all sides.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Sear the tuna steak for about 1.5 to 2 minutes per side for a rare center, or a bit longer to your preferred doneness. Remove from heat and let it rest briefly.
Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, orange segments, and red onion. Drizzle the lemon juice over the slaw, and toss gently to incorporate. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Plate the seared tuna alongside a generous portion of the citrus slaw. Serve immediately and enjoy the vibrant flavors and textures.
