INGREDIENTS
7 ounces Albacore Tuna Steak
2 tablespoons Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (for crust)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (for sauce)
1 clove Garlic
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the albacore tuna steak dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, combine the whole wheat breadcrumbs with the chopped parsley. Drizzle 1 teaspoon of olive oil over the mixture and toss to coat evenly.
Press the breadcrumb mixture onto the top side of the tuna steak to create a light herb crust.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the crusted side down and sear for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Carefully flip the tuna and sear the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes, keeping the center slightly rare to maintain tenderness.
Meanwhile, in a separate small bowl, combine the remaining teaspoon of olive oil, lemon juice, and finely minced garlic to create the lemon garlic sauce.
Once the tuna is seared to your desired doneness, remove from the pan and drizzle the lemon garlic sauce over the top.
Serve immediately and enjoy this light yet flavorful dish.
