Description
This recipe closely follows a tuna recipe by Veronica Bell. She is amazing as a chef!
Ingredients
- Tuna 20 oz
- Lemon ½ piece
- Salt to taste
- Olive Oil 2 tablespoons
- Dry White Wine 5 fl oz
- Pears 2 pieces
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Season the tuna fillet with salt (don't overdo it: a couple of pinches will suffice).
Step 2
Mix olive oil, lemon juice, and 100 ml of white wine. Add the marinade to the fish and let it marinate for 2-3 hours (if you're in a hurry, at least wait 30-40 minutes).
Step 3
Bake the pieces of tuna in foil (or in a baking bag) at 390°F for 10 minutes, for a pink center. Or 15-17 minutes for full cooking.
Step 4
Meanwhile, heat 50 ml of white wine in a pan and sauté the pear slices for 2 minutes on each side. Very soft pears will need 1-2 minutes, while firmer ones will require 3-4 minutes.
Step 5
Serve the fish with any fresh salad, sesame seeds, and oyster sauce (if desired and available). Sprinkle the tuna with pepper.
