Ingredients

  • 2 lemons

  • ¼ cup olive oil

  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • 4 4 ounce fresh tuna steaks, cut 3/4 inch thick

  • 12 ounce asparagus spears, trimmed

  • 1 5 ounce package mixed baby salad greens

  • cup shaved Parmesan cheese (optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F. Remove 2 tsp. zest and squeeze juice from one of the lemons. For dressing, in a small bowl whisk together lemon zest and juice, oil, pepper, and salt. Cut remaining lemon into wedges.

  2. Rinse fish; pat dry. In a 15x10-inch baking pan arrange fish and asparagus. Brush with 2 to 3 Tbsp. of the dressing. Roast 6 to 8 minutes or just until fish flakes and asparagus is crisp-tender.

  3. Drizzle salad greens with remaining dressing; toss to coat. If desired, sprinkle fish and asparagus with cheese. Serve with salad greens and lemon wedges.
