Wasabi Sesame Tuna
Ahi tuna marinated with soy and wasabi, crusted in sesame seeds, and quickly seared.
Instructions
-
In a shallow dish, combine the soy sauce, wasabi paste and cracked black pepper; mix well.
-
Add the tuna and turn until thoroughly coated on both sides. Let sit for 10 minutes or marinate overnight in a zippered bag (preferred).
-
Coat a pan with vegetable oil or nonstick cooking spray and preheat over high heat. Place the sesame seeds in another shallow dish, add the tuna and turn to coat completely. Grill the tuna for 1 to 2 minutes per side, until browned or cooked to desired doneness.
-
Slice thinly and serve with rice or stir-fried vegetables. Do not overcook or the tuna will be dry and chewy.
