Herb Crusted Tuna

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Herb Mixture

    In a small bowl, combine the chopped parsley, basil, thyme, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create the herb mixture.

  2. 2

    Coat the Tuna

    Rub the herb mixture all over the tuna steaks, ensuring they are well coated. Let them marinate for about 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    Cook the Tuna

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of butter and let it melt. Once hot, place the tuna steaks in the skillet and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked to your desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Lemon Butter Sauce

    In the same skillet after removing the tuna, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and the lemon juice. Stir until melted and combined.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Plate the herb crusted tuna and drizzle with the lemon butter sauce. Serve with plum sauce and a touch of chili sauce on the side.
