INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Tuna Fillet
1 tablespoon Whole Sesame Seeds
1/2 cup Cooked Brown Rice
1 medium Carrot
1/4 cup Shelled Edamame
1/4 cup Cucumber slices
1 tablespoon Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
PREPARATION
Rinse the tuna fillet and pat dry. Season lightly with a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.
Spread the sesame seeds on a plate. Press both sides of the tuna fillet into the seeds to form an even crust.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tuna fillet and sear for about 1.5 to 2 minutes on each side for a rare center, or adjust the cooking time based on your preferred doneness.
While the tuna is cooking, prepare the bowl. Reheat or prepare 1/2 cup of cooked brown rice and place it as the base of your bowl.
Julienne or slice the carrot into thin matchsticks. Measure out the shelled edamame and slice the cucumber into rounds or half-moons.
Assemble the bowl by layering the brown rice, arranged carrot sticks, edamame, and cucumber slices. Drizzle a tablespoon of low-sodium soy sauce over the vegetables.
Once cooked, slice the tuna fillet into bite-size pieces and place on top of the bowl. Optionally, garnish with extra sesame seeds or a squeeze of lemon for brightness before serving.
