Experience a burst of flavors with this seared tuna dish, featuring a crunchy, nutty sesame crust complemented by a zesty spicy citrus sauce. The tuna is perfectly seared, maintaining a tender interior while the sauce adds a refreshing kick, making it an exciting and balanced meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Tuna Steak (142g)
1 Tbsp Sesame Seeds (9g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (5g)
1 Tbsp Lime Juice (15g)
2 Tbsp Orange Juice (30g)
1 tsp Sriracha (5g)
1 tsp Honey (7g)
PREPARATION
Pat the tuna steak dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Spread the sesame seeds evenly on a plate and press both sides of the tuna into the seeds to create a crust.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the tuna in the skillet and sear for about 1-2 minutes per side for a rare center (adjust time based on desired doneness).
While the tuna is searing, combine lime juice, orange juice, sriracha, and honey in a small bowl to form the spicy citrus sauce.
Once seared to your liking, remove the tuna from the pan and let it rest for a minute before slicing.
Drizzle the spicy citrus sauce over the tuna or serve it on the side as a dipping sauce.
Garnish with a few extra sesame seeds or a sprig of cilantro if desired, and serve immediately.
