Pan-Seared Tuna with Lemon-Herb Sauce
Ahi tuna steaks are expertly pan-seared to create a delicate crust, then drizzled with a bright lemon-caper sauce and served alongside nutty quinoa and crisp asparagus.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Ahi tuna steak
0.25 tbsp Avocado oil
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 cup Asparagus spears
0.25 tbsp Ghee
1 tbsp Lemon juice
1 tsp Capers
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
1 clove Garlic
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the tuna steak dry with paper towels and season both sides evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat a heavy skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat with the avocado oil until it begins to shimmer.
Place the tuna in the hot pan and sear for approximately 1.5 to 2 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until a golden-brown crust forms.
Remove the tuna from the pan and set it aside to rest on a clean plate.
In the same pan, reduce the heat to medium and add the ghee, minced garlic, and capers, sautéing for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in the lemon juice and chopped fresh parsley, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any flavorful browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
Slice the tuna against the grain and serve over a bed of warm quinoa and steamed or roasted asparagus.
Drizzle the warm lemon-herb sauce generously over the tuna and vegetables before serving.
