Health and fertility benefits of Tuna Steaks with Garlic, Tomatoes, Capers, and Basil

Tuna is great for a high protein diet as it has 33 grams of protein within its housing, with no pesky carbohydrates to worry about. In addition to this, tuna contains B vitamins and vitamin D, both of which are vital to fighting back against PCOS. Basil is an excellent stress reliever, and has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits.

Ingredients

6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 cups chopped onions
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 pound plum tomatoes, coarsely chopped
1 cup (loosely packed) fresh basil leaves
1 1/2 tablespoons capers, rinsed, drained
4 5- to 6-ounceahi tuna steaks (each about 1 inch thick)

Instructions

Heat 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add onions; sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; sauté until golden, about 3 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, basil, and capers. Simmer uncovered until mixture thickens, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat remaining 3 tablespoons oil in another heavy large skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper. Add fish to skillet and cook until light brown at edges but pink in center, about 3 minutes per side. Pour in tomato mixture. Simmer until fish is opaque in center, about 5 minutes longer. Serve fish immediately.
