Pan-Seared Tuna with Lemon-Herb Sauce
Pan-seared tuna steaks finished with a bright, zesty lemon-herb sauce and served alongside tender-crisp asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a vibrant, citrusy bite.
INGREDIENTS
7.5 oz Tuna steak
1 tbsp Olive oil
1 cup Asparagus
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 tbsp Lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tsp Garlic
PREPARATION
Pat the tuna steak dry with paper towels and season both sides evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a cast-iron or heavy skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the tuna in the hot pan and sear for approximately 2 minutes per side for a perfect medium-rare center.
Remove the tuna from the pan and let it rest on a plate while you add the asparagus and minced garlic to the same skillet.
Sauté the asparagus for 3 to 4 minutes until it is bright green and tender-crisp.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, lemon zest, and chopped fresh parsley.
Slice the tuna against the grain and serve over a bed of warm quinoa with the asparagus on the side, drizzling the lemon-herb sauce over everything.
