Yield: 1 Servings
Measure | Ingredient |
---|---|
1 \N | Tuna steak; (5-oz) |
½ teaspoon | Extra-virgin olive oil |
1 small | Lemon; peeled seeded pith removed and chopped |
1 small | Lime; peeled seeded pith removed and chopped |
1 tablespoon | Chopped green onions |
1 tablespoon | Chopped fresh cilantro |
1 tablespoon | Chopped fresh parsley |
3 tablespoons | Unsweetened orange juice |
⅛ teaspoon | Salt |
1 teaspoon | Extra-virgin olive oil |
2 teaspoons | Sugar |
Set the oven to broil. Lightly coat the tuna steak with the olive oil and broil for about 3 to 5 minutes on each side, until the flesh is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Combine the remaining ingredients, pour the salsa over the tuna steak, and serve.
The extra salsa may be stored for 2 to 3 days, covered, in the refrigerator. It tastes great on broiled or baked chicken, too!
