Ingredients

• Tuna: 0.5 kg
• Lemon: 0.5 pc
• Salt: to taste
• Olive oil: 2 tbsp
• Dry white wine: 150 ml
• Pears: 2 pc

Cooking steps

1. Salt the tuna fillet (don't overdo it (!): a couple of pinches of salt is enough).

   Required ingredients:

   • Salt:  to taste

2. Mix olive oil, lemon juice, and 100 ml of white wine. Add the marinade to the fish and let it marinate for 2-3 hours (if in a hurry, at least wait 30-40 minutes).

   Required ingredients:

   • Olive oil: 2 tablespoons
   • Lemon: 0.5 piece
   • Dry white wine: 150 ml
   • Tuna: 0.5 kg

3. Bake tuna pieces in foil (or in a sleeve) at 200 degrees for 10 minutes for a pink center, or 15-17 minutes for full cooking.

   Required ingredients:

   • Tuna: 0.5 kg

4. Meanwhile, heat 50 ml of white wine in a pan and sauté the pear slices for 2 minutes on each side. Very soft pears will need 1-2 minutes, while firmer ones will require 3-4 minutes.

   Required ingredients:

   • Dry white wine: 150 ml
   • Pears: 2 pieces

5. Serve the fish with any fresh salad, sesame, and oyster sauce (if desired). Sprinkle the tuna with pepper.
