INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Tuna Steak
2 cups Mixed Salad Greens
5 Cherry Tomatoes
1 cup Cucumber Slices (approx. quarter cup)
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
0.5 tsp Dijon Mustard
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Season the tuna steak with salt and pepper on both sides.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the tuna for about 1.5-2 minutes per side for a rare to medium-rare finish, or adjust based on your preferred doneness.
While the tuna rests, prepare the salad by placing mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber slices in a large bowl.
In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and Dijon mustard until emulsified. Adjust seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Slice the seared tuna against the grain and arrange it over the salad. Drizzle the lemon vinaigrette over the top and serve immediately.
