Prep Time20 minsCook Time5 minsTotal Time25 mins
For the Sauce:
 1 shallot, thinly-sliced
 1 bay leaf
 ½ cup white wine
 3 tbsp sour cream
 2 tsp lemon juice
 1 tsp fresh dill, chopped
 1 tsp whole-grain mustard
 ½ tsp kosher salt
For the Tuna:
 ¼ cup panko crumbs
 ¼ cup shelled pistachios, unsalted
 1 tsp fresh dill
 ¼ tsp salt
 8 tuna steaks, 1-1 ¼” thick
 1 tsp olive oil
1

Place shallot, bay leaf and wine in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce until the wine is almost evaporated, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, discard bay leaf and transfer to a small bowl.

2

Add sour cream, lemon juice, dill, mustard and salt; stir to combine. Set aside

3

Put panko, pistachios, remaining 1 teaspoon dill and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a blender or food processor. Process until finely-ground. Transfer to a shallow bowl.

4

Dredge both sides of the tuna in the pistachio mixture.

5

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the tuna and cook until browned, adjusting the heat as necessary to prevent burning, 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare.

6

Serve with the lemon-dill sauce.
