INGREDIENTS
5 oz Ahi Tuna Steak
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
1 tbsp Sesame Seeds
1/2 cup sliced Cucumber
1 medium Carrot, julienned
1/2 cup Sugar Snap Peas
1 tbsp Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
1 tsp Sesame Oil
1 tsp Fresh Ginger, grated
1 tsp Lime Juice
PREPARATION
In a shallow dish, combine the sesame seeds and a pinch of black pepper. Lightly press the Ahi tuna steak into the seeds to thoroughly coat both sides.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the tuna and sear for about 1-2 minutes per side depending on your preferred doneness, leaving the center slightly rare.
Remove the tuna from the pan and let it rest briefly. Using a sharp knife, thinly slice the tuna.
Prepare the bowl by placing the pre-cooked brown rice as the base. Arrange the sliced cucumber, julienned carrot, and sugar snap peas around the rice.
In a small bowl, whisk together the low-sodium soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, and lime juice to create a light dressing.
Drizzle the dressing over the bowl and top with the sliced tuna. Optionally garnish with extra sesame seeds.
Serve immediately and enjoy this balanced, flavor-packed meal.
