Tuna is rich in omega-3 fatty acids that can help to protect against heart disease. These marinated chilli and lime tuna steaks are a quick, tasty and healthy meal.
Ingredients
2 tuna steaks
Pepper for seasoning
1 tbs olive oil
Marinade
juice of 1 lime
chilli flakes
1 tsp of coriander
1 clove of garlic
Method
Make the marinade in a bowl by combining the juice of 1 lime, the chilli flakes, 1 teaspoon of coriander and 1 clove of garlic.
Place the tuna steaks in the marinade and turn to coat. Marinate for at least 30 minutes in the fridge.
Heat a cast-iron griddle pan. Brush the tuna steaks with the oil and season with freshly ground black pepper. Cook for 2-3 mins on each side until the steaks are cooked to your liking. Do not overcook.
The marinated chilli and lime tuna steaks are delicious served with salad.
Keep smiling :)

I almost bought some tuna steaks the other day and now I definitely regret it! Chili and lime are two of my favorite flavors to combine so this is definitely going into next week’s meal planning!
