Seared Tuna with Lemon-Herb Sauce
Pan-seared Ahi tuna steaks finished with a bright, zesty lemon-herb drizzle and served alongside fluffy quinoa and crisp-tender roasted asparagus.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Ahi tuna steak
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 cup Asparagus spears
2 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 tsp Fresh parsley
1 tsp Fresh dill
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tsp Avocado oil
PREPARATION
In a small glass bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, chopped parsley, and fresh dill to create the herb sauce.
Pat the tuna steak dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Steam the asparagus spears for 3-4 minutes until they are bright green and crisp-tender, then set aside.
Heat the avocado oil in a heavy-bottomed or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering and very hot.
Carefully place the tuna steak in the skillet and sear for approximately 1.5 minutes per side for a rare center, or 2 minutes per side for medium-rare.
Remove the tuna from the pan and let it rest for 2 minutes before slicing into thin strips across the grain.
Place the warm cooked quinoa on a plate, arrange the sliced tuna and asparagus on top, and finish by drizzling the lemon-herb sauce over the entire dish.
