I could eat this Pan Seared Tuna Steak with Lemon Dill Sauce, like, every day! It is so flavorful and satisfying.
If you have given up on canned tuna this recipe is for you. Let’s be real, most canned tuna is more like cat food nowadays. There is only a couple brands that I can eat. Cooking a tuna steak tastes good every time. And only takes about 10 minutes to make!
This makes a great dinner or lunch. Make it the night before for a fantastic lunch on the go. So when coworkers are making trips to the drive-thru; you can enjoy this flavorful, protein packed meal!

That lemon dill sauce sounds amazing! I love that you paired it with tuna…I never think so go with something bright like that with tuna.

This is absolutely spectacular. I love fish and this recipe would go over well at my house. The sauce just takes it over the top. I think I might have to look into WW. If I can eat stuff like this I’m all in.
