Seared Tuna Steak

Ingredients

3 ahi tuna steaks

2 tablespoons from Olives & Grapes Honey Ginger white balsamic vinegar

3 tablespoons from Olives & Grapes Fused Whole Fruit Lemon or Persian Lime-infused olive oil

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper to taste

Mix the lemon juice, Lemon zest, honey ginger white balsamic, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Rub the marinade into the tuna steaks then cover and refrigerate for about 15 minutes.

Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet, preferably cast-iron, over medium-high to high heat. When the pan is hot, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, remove the tuna steaks from the marinade, and sear them for a minute to a minute and a half on each side (even a little longer if you want the tuna less rare than pictured).

Serve over your choice of salad.
