Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by mincing 2-3 cloves of fresh garlic and chopping a handful of your favorite fresh herbs, such as parsley, thyme, or basil. Store separately in the fridge until ready to use.
- In a medium skillet, heat 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium heat until melted. Add minced garlic and sauté gently for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant and lightly golden.
- Once garlic is aromatic, stir in chopped fresh herbs along with the zest of half a lemon. Let this mixture bubble for another minute.
- Pat tuna steaks dry with a paper towel. Heat the same skillet over medium-high heat and place the steaks into the hot butter. Sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side.
- Remove tuna steaks from the skillet and place them on a plate. Drizzle garlic herb butter over the steaks before serving.

Notes
Let tuna steaks sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes before cooking for better results. Avoid overcooking and monitor garlic's color to prevent bitterness.
