Seared Tuna with Lemon-Herb Sauce
Pan-seared ahi tuna steaks drizzled with a bright, zesty lemon-herb sauce and served alongside tender roasted asparagus and fluffy quinoa.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Ahi tuna steak
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
1 clove Garlic
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Season the tuna steak on both sides with the sea salt and black pepper.
Heat half of the olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer.
Sear the tuna for 1 to 2 minutes per side for a rare to medium-rare center, then remove from the pan and let it rest for 3 minutes.
In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and sauté the asparagus spears for 4 to 5 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
Whisk together the lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, and finely chopped parsley in a small bowl to create the herb sauce.
Slice the rested tuna against the grain into thick strips.
Plate the fluffy quinoa and asparagus, top with the sliced tuna, and finish by drizzling the zesty lemon-herb sauce over the fish.
