Equipment

  • 1 Large Skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 4 to 6 large tuna filets
  • 1 bottle of Aldi’s Bang Bang sauce
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp Badia Complete seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • A pinch of salt
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil

Instructions
 

  • Prep the Skillet: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tbsp of coconut oil and allow it to melt for about a minute.
  • Season the Tuna: While the oil is heating, season your tuna filets with oregano, onion powder, Badia Complete seasoning, black pepper, and a pinch of salt on both sides.
  • Cook the Tuna: Add the seasoned tuna filets to the skillet. Cook the filets for about 2–3 minutes per side, allowing them to brown nicely but remain tender inside.
  • Add Bang Bang Sauce: Once the tuna is seared, pour the Aldi Bang Bang sauce over the tuna in the skillet. Cover the skillet with a lid and reduce the heat to low.
  • Simmer: Let the tuna simmer in the sauce for about 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together and the tuna to absorb all the delicious sauce.
  • Serve: Remove the tuna from the skillet and serve it hot. Pair it with your favorite side dish—rice, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.
