Pan-Seared Tuna with Garlic-Herb Crust
Pan-seared tuna steaks encrusted with aromatic garlic and herbs, served alongside crisp-tender asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a savory and satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Yellowfin tuna steak
0.5 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Dried oregano
1 tsp Dried thyme
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 cup Asparagus spears
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
PREPARATION
Pat the tuna steak dry with paper towels to ensure a perfect sear.
In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, dried oregano, dried thyme, sea salt, and black pepper.
Press the herb mixture firmly onto both sides of the tuna steak to create a thick crust.
Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Sear the tuna for 1 to 2 minutes per side for medium-rare, then remove from the pan and let it rest.
In the same pan, add the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil and sauté the asparagus for 4 to 5 minutes until bright green and tender.
Serve the sliced tuna over a bed of warm quinoa with the sautéed asparagus on the side.
