Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Mango Salsa
Dice the mango, red onion, and red bell pepper. In a bowl, combine the diced mango, red onion, and red bell pepper. Add chopped cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well and set aside.
Sauté the Vegetables
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced zucchini and red bell pepper. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.
Sear the Tuna
Season the yellowfin tuna steaks with salt and black pepper. In the same skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over high heat. Add the tuna steaks and sear for about 1-2 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer for your desired doneness. Remove from heat.
Plate the Dish
On each plate, place a serving of cooked rice, top with sautéed veggies, and place the seared tuna on top. Spoon the mango salsa over the tuna. Garnish with additional cilantro if desired.
