Slim Man Cooks Ahi Tuna with Red Wine Sauce

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Season ahi tuna steaks with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Sear the tuna steaks in the skillet for 1-2 minutes per side until browned but rare in the center.

Remove the tuna from the skillet and set aside on a plate.

Add shallots and garlic to the skillet, cooking until softened, about 2-3 minutes.

Pour in the red wine and soy sauce, scraping up any browned bits from the skillet.

Bring the mixture to a simmer and reduce by half, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in butter until melted and the sauce is glossy.

Mix cornstarch with water in a small bowl to create a slurry.

Add the cornstarch slurry to the sauce, stirring until thickened, about 1-2 minutes.

Add fresh thyme and lemon juice to the sauce, stirring to combine.

Slice the seared tuna and arrange it on plates.

Spoon the red wine sauce over the tuna.

Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
