Enjoy a vibrant medley of flavors in this dish featuring a perfectly pan-seared tuna steak paired with crispy roasted asparagus and a zesty lemon-herb quinoa.

INGREDIENTS
5 oz Tuna Steak
1 cup Asparagus
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for roasting the asparagus.
Trim the tough ends of the asparagus and toss with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 10-12 minutes until crispy.
While the asparagus roasts, rinse and pat dry the tuna steak. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add a teaspoon of olive oil and once shimmering, place the tuna steak in the pan. Sear for about 2-3 minutes per side for a medium-rare finish (adjust time based on thickness and desired doneness).
In a small bowl, combine the cooked quinoa with lemon juice and fresh parsley. Season with a little salt and pepper, then toss to mix.
Plate the seared tuna alongside the roasted asparagus and a serving of lemon-herb quinoa. Serve immediately and enjoy your light, protein-packed meal.
