Pan-Seared Tuna with Lemon-Herb Sauce
Pan-seared Ahi tuna steaks drizzled with a bright lemon-herb sauce, served alongside nutty quinoa and crisp-tender roasted asparagus for a refreshing finish.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Yellowfin tuna steak
1.5 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 tbsp Lemon juice
1 clove Garlic
2 tbsp Fresh parsley
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and toss the asparagus spears with 0.5 tablespoons of olive oil and a pinch of salt on a baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus for 10-12 minutes until tender but still crisp.
Pat the tuna steak dry with paper towels and season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat 0.5 tablespoons of olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until the pan is very hot.
Sear the tuna for 1.5 to 2 minutes per side for a rare to medium-rare center, then remove from the pan to rest.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 0.5 tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, and finely chopped parsley to create the sauce.
Slice the tuna against the grain and serve over the warm quinoa with roasted asparagus on the side.
Drizzle the fresh lemon-herb sauce over the tuna and enjoy immediately.
