This light, satisfying lunch features tuna fillet seared briefly on the grill and served over an olive-oil-dressed salad. Unlike canned tuna, fresh tuna’s texture takes center stage.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Season the tuna

5 min

Rub the tuna fillets with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper.

2

Sear on the grill

4 min

Sear the fillets on a hot grill for 1–2 minutes per side, then slice.

3

Prepare the salad

8 min

Toss the salad greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber and red onion with the olive oil and lemon dressing.

4

Serve

2 min

Arrange the sliced tuna over the salad and serve.

Reminder

Important: Tuna can become dry and tough if overcooked; a quick sear that leaves the center slightly pink preserves its texture. Allergen: contains fish only. Caution: If you are not sure the fresh tuna is very fresh, do not cook it rare or nearly raw.
