DIRECTIONS
Make the Jalapeño Sauce: In a food processor or high powered-blender, add the Jalapeño yogurt ingredients and blend well until smooth. Scrape out into a mason jar and set aside.
Make the Green Apple Salad: Toss the sliced apples, lemon juice, fresh mint and dill together. Set aside.
Make the Tuna: Season the tuna first with a sprinkle of sea salt and then season heavily with the Healthy On You Ethiopian spice blend on all 4 sides.
Heat a cast iron pan over high heat and add the olive oil. When hot, add the tuna and cook for 1½ minutes per side. Using tongs, sear the sides of the tuna as well. Rare is best but cook longer for a more well done tuna. Slice the tuna into equals parts.
Plate the dish: Spread the Jalapeño Yogurt Sauce on a plate, top with slices of tuna and place the Apple Salad and the herbs all around it. Enjoy!
