Pan-Seared Tuna with Lemon-Herb Sauce
Pan-seared tuna steaks drizzled with a bright lemon-herb sauce and served with crisp asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a vibrant, protein-packed meal.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Ahi tuna steak
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 cup Asparagus spears
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
1 tsp Fresh dill
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Capers
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 the fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, chopped parsley, chopped dill, capers, and half of the extra virgin olive oil to create the sauce.
Heat a stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat with a splash of water and sauté the asparagus spears until they are tender-crisp and vibrant green.
Remove the asparagus from the pan and wipe it dry; add the remaining olive oil and sear the tuna steak for 90 seconds to 2 minutes per side to achieve a perfect medium-rare center.
Slice the tuna against the grain and arrange it over the warm cooked quinoa with the asparagus on the side, then finish by drizzling the lemon-herb sauce over the fish.
