Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss the 2 sliced sweet potatoes with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast until tender and caramelized, about 25 minutes, flipping halfway.

  2. Step 2

    Meanwhile, bring a small pot of salted water to a boil. Add the 1 cup edamame and 1 cup green beans, cook for 3-4 minutes until bright green and crisp-tender, then drain and set aside.

  3. Step 3

    Make the sauce: in a small bowl, mix the 1 cup Greek yogurt with the juice of half the lemon, salt, and pepper. Set aside.

  4. Step 4

    Pat the 2 tuna steaks dry and season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.

  5. Step 5

    Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add the tuna steaks and sear for 1-2 minutes per side for rare, or 2-3 minutes for medium, until nicely browned on the outside but still pink in the center.

  6. Step 6

    Remove tuna from skillet and let rest for 2 minutes. Slice against the grain into 1/2-inch thick slices.

  7. Step 7

    Serve the sliced tuna with the roasted sweet potatoes, edamame and green beans, a lemon wedge, and the creamy sauce on the side.
