Walking Off The Weight

Tuna is a great source of lean protein. If you’ve never cooked your own tuna steaks, you may be a little intimidated, but this easy recipe makes it super simple and these turn our perfect for me every single time. Just add a veggie or a nice green salad and dinner is served.

Easy Tuna Steaks

• 1 cup of cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1/3 cup pitted and chopped Kalamata olives
• 1 tbsp capers
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 3 tsp fresh thyme leaves
• ¼ tsp black pepper
• 4 tuna steaks, skin removed
• 1 lemon, cut into wedges

Preheat the oven to 425°F.

Lightly oil a large ovenproof dish.

In a small bowl, combine the cherry tomatoes, olives, capers, thyme and olive oil. Season with black pepper.

Arrange the tuna steaks in one layer in an ovenproof dish, top them with the tomato and olive mixture. Bake in the oven until the fish is cooked, about 20 minutes.
