Fry the onion and garlic in olive oil in a saucepan until soft and golden brown in colour. Then add the tomato paste and douse with the wine. Let it reduce to about half and then add the tomatoes, the cinnamon stick, oregano, bay leaf, lemon zest, salt and pepper. Allow the sauce to thicken and put the tuna fillets on top, cover the pan and cook for 5 minutes on each side.
Serve with lemon slices and fresh oregano.
Bon appétit!
Tip: Don’t overcook the tuna because the flesh will get dry and hard.
