Grilled Tuna Steak with Herbed Lentil Salad
Grilled tuna steak served over a salad of earthy lentils and fresh herbs, topped with creamy avocado and a bright, zesty lemon-garlic dressing.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Yellowfin Tuna Steak
0.6 cup Cooked Brown Lentils
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
50g Avocado
0.5 cup Cherry Tomatoes
0.5 cup Cucumber
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tbsp Red Onion
PREPARATION
Pat the tuna steak dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt and cracked black pepper.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cooked lentils, halved cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, and finely chopped red onion.
In a small jar, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, and a pinch of dried oregano to create the dressing.
Toss the lentil mixture with half of the prepared dressing and set aside to let the flavors meld.
Heat a grill pan or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and lightly brush with a tiny amount of oil.
Sear the tuna steak for approximately 2 minutes per side for medium-rare, ensuring a nice crust forms on the outside.
Transfer the lentil salad to a plate, slice the tuna steak into thick pieces, and arrange them on top.
Garnish with sliced avocado and drizzle the remaining lemon-olive oil dressing over the tuna for a zesty finish.
