Flaky Pan-Seared Tuna with Roasted Asparagus and Lemon
Enjoy a beautifully seared tuna steak paired with crisp roasted asparagus, a hint of zesty lemon, and a side of light quinoa. This dish delivers flaky, tender tuna balanced by the earthy crunch of asparagus, all brought together with a drizzle of olive oil for rich flavor and a bright citrus finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Tuna Steak (142 g)
1 cup Asparagus (134 g)
1 tbsp Olive Oil (13.5 g)
1 Lemon Wedge (17 g)
1/4 cup Cooked Quinoa (43 g)
PREPARATION
Pat the tuna steak dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is shimmering, carefully place the tuna steak in the pan, searing it for about 2-3 minutes on each side until a flaky golden crust forms while keeping the center tender.
Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss asparagus with a light drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread them on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for 8-10 minutes until they are tender but still slightly crisp.
Prepare a side of cooked quinoa (if not pre-cooked, prepare according to package instructions) to serve with the meal.
Plate the tuna steak alongside the roasted asparagus, add a lemon wedge on the side, and finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the tuna for a bright, tangy flavor.
