Tuna Steak
340 g tuna steaks (approximately 1" thick)
1 fresh lemon
6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (divided)
1 teaspoon salt (divided)
½ teaspoon black pepper (divided)
1 teaspoon dried dill weed
12 stalks fresh asparagus
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1. Set the oven at 200C. Put the steaks in a bowl that is big enough to handle tossing and turning the steaks.
2. Now zest and squeeze a lemon into the bowl. Then add the salt, pepper, dill weed and olive oil.
3. Turn the steaks over a few times to mix up all the ingredients and evenly coat the steaks. When that’s done to your satisfaction line a baking pan, that is just big enough to handle your steaks, with aluminum foil. Use enough foil to stick up higher than the sides of the pan to save yourself some cleanup. Put the steaks and all of the other ingredients from the bowl into the pan. Use a tablespoon to get the top of the steaks covered with all that good stuff.
4. Put that pan aside while you get the asparagus ready. Take a sheetpan, that is just big enough to get all of the stalks laid out. Line it with aluminum foil. Again, use enough foil so that it sticks up past the sides of the pan. Cut the ugly stumps off and lay the stalks out in the pan. Cut the onion into strips and add it to the asparagus. Add the olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder and the grated parmesan and roll the stalks around getting them covered with the added ingredients.
5. Put the pans in the oven and after ten minutes check ’em. The narrower the asparagus stalks are the quicker they will cook. The steaks will get cooked medium well in 10-12 minutes. Poke the asparagus with a fork and the steaks with your finger. The softer the asparagus the more done it is. The firmer the tuna the more done it is. If you are unsure about the tuna just split a steak with the fork to see if it is how you like it. Some folks like it raw in the middle and some like it with no pink whatsoever.
