Seared Tuna and Accompaniments

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sweet Potatoes

    Peel and cube the sweet potatoes. Boil them in salted water until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and return to the pot.

  2. 2

    Glaze the Sweet Potatoes

    Add the sweet chili sauce to the sweet potatoes, stirring to coat evenly. Cook on low heat for 2-3 minutes until heated through.

  3. 3

    Sear the Tuna

    Season the tuna steaks with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the tuna for 1-2 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting time for desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Fruit Salsa

    In a bowl, combine diced pineapple, strawberries, and orange segments. Add chopped cilantro and mix gently.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Dish

    Place a portion of the sweet chili glazed sweet potatoes on a plate. Top with the seared tuna steak and spoon the fruit salsa over the top.
