Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces tuna steaks
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 whole lemon
- 3 pieces garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup dry white wine
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C).
Pat the tuna steaks dry with a paper towel and place them on a plate.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, juice from half the lemon (reserve the other half for garnish), minced garlic, chopped fresh parsley, salt, and black pepper.
Rub the olive oil mixture generously on both sides of the tuna steaks. Let them marinate for 5-10 minutes while preparing the other ingredients.
In a baking dish, arrange the tuna steaks in a single layer. Pour the white wine around the steaks.
Slice the remaining half of the lemon into thin slices and place them on top of the tuna steaks.
Scatter the cherry tomatoes around the tuna in the baking dish.
Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil to prevent moisture from escaping during cooking.
Place the dish in the oven and slow-cook for 35-40 minutes, or until the tuna is tender and just cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 125°F (52°C) for medium-rare or 145°F (63°C) for well-done.
Once cooked, remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the tuna steaks warm, garnished with additional parsley and a wedge of lemon if desired.
