Golden Pan-Seared Tuna with Zesty Lemon
Pan-seared tuna steaks crusted with cracked pepper and lemon zest, served over fluffy quinoa and crisp-tender green beans for a vibrant, citrusy finish.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Yellowfin tuna steak
1 tbsp Avocado oil
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 cup Fresh green beans
0.5 whole Lemon
1 clove Garlic
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the tuna steak dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and the zest of the lemon half.
Heat the avocado oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the tuna in the hot pan and sear for 1 to 2 minutes per side until a golden-brown crust forms while the center remains pink.
While the tuna rests, steam the green beans for 4 minutes until they are bright green and crisp-tender.
In the same skillet used for the tuna, briefly sauté the minced garlic and the juice from the lemon half for 30 seconds to create a quick pan sauce.
Fluff the pre-cooked quinoa and place it on a plate, topping it with the steamed green beans and the sliced tuna steak.
Drizzle the warm lemon-garlic pan sauce over the tuna and serve immediately.
