STEP 1:

First, heat the olive oil and butter in an extra large ovenproof skillet over medium heat.

STEP 2:

Next, add the cabbage, onion, celery, garlic, sea salt and black pepper to the pan. Sauté vegetables until they are crisp tender - about 10 minutes.

STEP 3:

In a separate bowl, mix in the dill, mustard powder, lemon zest, and lemon juice.

STEP 4:

Add the lemon mixture to the pan. Stir to combine.

STEP 5:

Pour the heavy cream and 1 cup Parmesan cheese into the pan. Mix in and keep stirring until the cheese has melted and combined with the heavy cream.

STEP 6:

Then, reduce heat to medium low. Simmer, allowing the sauce to thicken.

STEP 7:

Once the sauce has started to thicken, stir in the tuna and the peas.

STEP 8:

Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan over the top of the dish and transfer to the oven. Broil on high for 3 to 5 minutes or until it has a golden brown crust.
