Savor a vibrant meal featuring a perfectly seared tuna steak paired with tender roasted asparagus and a bright, refreshing lemon-herb quinoa. This dish delivers a harmonious balance of smoky and zesty flavors, making it a delightful choice for a healthy lunch or dinner.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Tuna Steak
8 spears Asparagus
1 cup cooked Quinoa (from 1/3 cup dry)
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon (zest and juice)
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley, chopped
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Place the asparagus spears on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
While the asparagus roasts, rinse the quinoa and cook it according to package instructions. Once cooked, fluff the quinoa and mix in the lemon zest, lemon juice, and chopped parsley. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Pat the tuna steak dry and season both sides with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the tuna and sear for about 2-3 minutes per side for a medium-rare finish, or adjust timing for your preferred doneness.
Plate the tuna steak alongside a serving of the lemon-herb quinoa and roasted asparagus. Serve immediately.
