This recipe for seared tuna steaks with lemon, caper & parsley butter is a quick and easy low-carb recipe. The capers, olive oil, lemon zest & juice, and butter make a luscious and vibrant sauce to pair with the meaty tuna. With only a handful of ingredients, this delicious dish comes together in minutes making it perfect for a weeknight supper.

I sourced locally caught yellowfin tuna which worked a treat, but any high-quality tuna will work with this recipe. The sauce is like piccata but without the flour to thicken.

What to serve with tuna steaks

I opted for a classic accompaniment that doesn’t overpower the flavour-packed tuna. Boiled new potatoes tossed in parsley butter and lightly steamed fresh asparagus. A simple mixed green salad was the third addition because I love a well-dressed green salad.
