    Ingredients

    • 2 (1-inch thick) fresh yellowfin tuna steaks
    • Kosher salt
    • Freshly ground black pepper
    • 1 teaspoon olive oil
    • 2 Tablespoons butter, divided use
    • 1/8 cup fresh minced sweet onions
    • 1 large clove garlic, finely minced
    • 1/4 cup white white wine
    • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice, or more to taste
    • 1/4 cup heavy cream
    • 2 Tablespoons drained capers
    • Fresh dill weed and lemon or lime wedges for garnish

    Directions

    1. Sprinkle both sides yellowfin tuna steaks with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper.
    2. Heat a heavy skillet over high heat. Add olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter and swirl to coat the pan. Sear tuna steaks until golden brown on each side, turning only once. Do not overcook tuna. Remove and keep warm.
    3. Lower heat to medium. Add remaining tablespoon of butter to the pan along with the onions. Gently saute until onions are translucent. Add garlic and saute 1 additional minute, stirring often. Carefully pour in the white wine and lemon juice. Stir and cook until the liquid is reduced by half, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add heavy cream and return to a simmer. Cook another 3 minutes or so until thickened. Stir in drained capers.
    4. Pour lemon cream sauce over warm tuna steaks and garnish with dill and lemon or lime to serve.
