  • 1–2 tbsp olive oil (for searing)
  • 1–2 tbsp maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and roast vegetables (carrots, bell peppers, and asparagus) with olive oil, salt, and pepper for 15–20 minutes.
  2. Pat Bluefin Tuna Saku dry and sear in a hot skillet for 1–2 minutes per side for medium-rare.
