Morrocan Tuna With Herb Salsa

Morrocan Tuna With Herb Salsa

If you can’t get fresh tuna steaks, substitute drained, canned tuna and serve this recipe as a cold dish.

Number of Servings: 1
Serving Size: 1 steak

Ingredients:

tuna steak - 5 oz
extra-virgin olive oil - 1/2 tsp
small lemon, peeled, seeded, pith removed and chopped - 1
chopped green onion - 1 tbsp
cilantro, fresh chopped - 1 tbsp
chopped fresh parsley - 1 tbsp
orange juice, unsweetened - 3 tbsp
salt - 1/8 tsp
extra-virgin olive oil - 1 tsp
sugar - 2 tsp

  1. Set the oven to broil. Lightly coat the tuna steak with the olive oil and broil for about 3-5 minutes on each side, until the flesh is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

  2. Combine the remaining ingredients, pour the salsa over the tuna, and serve.

  3. The extra salsa may be stored or 2-3 days, covered, in the refrigerator. It tastes great on broiled or baked chicken, too!
