Pan-Seared Tuna with Lemon-Herb Sauce
Pan-seared tuna steaks featuring a peppery crust are drizzled with a bright lemon-herb sauce and served alongside tender asparagus for a vibrant, nutrient-dense meal.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Ahi tuna steak
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
0.25 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 cup asparagus
2 cup baby arugula
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tbsp fresh parsley
1 tsp fresh oregano
1 clove garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the tuna steak completely dry with paper towels and season both sides evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
In a small glass bowl, whisk together 0.5 tbsp olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, chopped parsley, and chopped oregano to create the herb sauce.
Heat 0.5 tbsp olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat; add the asparagus spears and sauté for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp and slightly charred, then remove from the pan.
Add the remaining 0.5 tbsp olive oil to the same skillet and increase the heat to high until the oil is shimmering.
Place the tuna steak in the hot skillet and sear for 1.5 to 2 minutes per side for a perfect medium-rare center with a golden-brown crust.
Place the baby arugula on a serving plate, top with the seared tuna and sautéed asparagus, and finish by spooning the lemon-herb sauce over the fish.
