Ingredients for keto lunch: fish and mushrooms

  • 4.4 oz tuna (fresh steak, cooked weight about 3.9 oz (110 g))
  • 2.8 oz mushrooms in oil (mixed)
  • 1.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 0.7 oz almonds

Tools for keto lunch 1 serving

Preparation

  • To prepare Wednesday’s keto lunch, first weigh 1 1/2 tbsp of oil (about 20 g), put half of it in a pan, heat it slightly then add the tuna steak (fresh or frozen) and 2 tablespoons of water. Cover with a lid and let cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes.

    After that time, the fish will start to brown, so turn it over to cook the other side as well. Add only some rosemary for aroma.

    Regarding salt, I never use it, especially on diets, but in this case it is not needed at all—the fish is already tasty on its own.

    When it is well golden on both sides, turn off the heat.

    Transfer the tuna to a plate, also add 2.8 oz (about 80 g) of mixed marinated mushrooms (of course you can also use freshly cooked mushrooms).

    Dress with the remaining oil raw.

    The one-dish meal for Wednesday lunch is ready.

    Happy dieting!
