Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Rinse and prepare the fresh wild tuna packed in olive oil and avocados, patting dry with clean paper towels.
2
Warm extra-virgin olive oil over medium-low heat (325°F / 165°C) so its delicate liver-protective polyphenols do not smoke.
3
Add wild tuna packed in olive oil, celery, and lemon juice, cooking gently for 5 minutes until tender and fragrant.
4
Incorporate avocados and parsley, tossing for 2–3 minutes until heated through and vibrant.
5
Serve warm with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice to boost glutathione and bile flow.

💡 Chef Tips for Best Results

  • ✓Always use cold-pressed extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO) rather than butter or refined seed oils to lower liver enzymes (ALT/AST).
  • ✓The antioxidants and omega-3s in wild tuna packed in olive oil and parsley help reduce hepatic oxidative stress.
  • ✓Avoid adding table sugar or white flour sides; pair with leafy greens or cruciferous vegetables.

🧊 Storage, Freezing & Safe Reheating

Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container at 40°F (4°C) for up to 4 days, or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat to 165°F (74°C) before serving.
