Ingredients:
- 4 1/2 teaspoons sliced green onion tops (green parts only)
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley leaves
- 1/4 teaspoon celery seed
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- Lettuce cups or sliced bread
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

- 2 (12-ounce) portions tuna steak
- 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped red onion
- 6 tablespoons finely chopped celery

Instructions:
- Heat the olive oil in a 10-inch saute pan over medium heat. Season both sides of the tuna steaks with salt and white pepper. Gently place the seasoned tuna in the pan and cook without moving for 5 minutes. Flip the fish and cook for another 5 minutes until just cooked. Take the tuna out of the pan and let it rest for 3 to 4 minutes. Break the tuna steaks into small chunks, put in a medium bowl, and mix with the rest of the ingredients.
- Mix all the ingredients thoroughly using a spatula or a large spoon. Serve the mixture in lettuce cups, or pair it with your preferred sliced bread to make sandwiches.
