INGREDIENTS
6 oz Tuna Steak
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 cup Asparagus
1/2 Lemon
1 Garlic Clove
1 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley or Dill)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) for roasting the asparagus.
Wash the asparagus and trim the woody ends. Toss the asparagus with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.
Place the asparagus in the oven and roast for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
While the asparagus roasts, prepare the tuna. In a small bowl, mix the juice of 1/2 lemon, minced garlic, chopped fresh herbs, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Pat the tuna steak dry with a paper towel. Rub the lemon-herb mixture evenly over the tuna steak.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the tuna steak and sear for about 2 minutes on each side for a medium-rare finish, or adjust the cooking time based on your desired doneness.
Remove the tuna from the skillet and let it rest for a minute.
Plate the seared tuna alongside the roasted asparagus, and drizzle any remaining pan juices over the top. Garnish with extra lemon slices or herbs if desired, then serve immediately.
