Salad with Seared Tuna Steaks

We’ve already mentioned the nutritional mantra that tells us we should eat fish three times a week for a healthy diet. In terms of the healthiest types, we definitely have to single out semi-fatty fish, which contain the highest levels of omega-3 fatty acids. Our favorite is tuna, a large and quick saltwater fish that is also unique for its high protein content- a staggering 24 grams per 100 grams! It’s also rich in B vitamins, vitamin D, phosphorus, potassium and magnesium. 

On top of all that, tuna is an exceptionally flavorful and meaty fish that doesn’t require much more than a quick sear in the pan. We give our tuna some additional flavor by coating it in pumpkin flavor, a great healthy alternative to white flour, and serve it with fresh greens for a healthy and balanced meal that’s ready in under 30 minutes! Thanks to Zepter Masterpiece Cookware you can rest assured that all of your ingredients will be prepared the healthy way- without additional oils or fats and at low temperatures.
