Pan-Seared Tuna with Lemon-Herb Sauce
Pan-seared ahi tuna steaks drizzled with a zesty lemon-herb sauce and served alongside crisp asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a vibrant, nutrient-dense meal.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz ahi tuna steak
0.5 tbsp avocado oil
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 cup asparagus spears
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tbsp fresh parsley
1 clove garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, chopped parsley, and minced garlic to create the vibrant 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 tender-crisp.
Heat the avocado oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer.
Carefully place the tuna in the hot skillet and sear for 1.5 to 2 minutes per side for a perfect medium-rare center.
Slice the tuna against the grain and serve over the warm quinoa with the asparagus, finishing with a generous drizzle of the lemon-herb sauce.
