INGREDIENTS
6 oz Tuna Steak (~170g)
1 tbsp Sesame Seeds (~9g)
2 tsp Olive Oil (~10g)
2 tbsp Fresh Orange Juice (~30g)
1 tbsp Fresh Lime Juice (~15g)
1 clove Garlic
1/2 tsp Fresh Ginger
1/4 tsp Red Chili Flakes
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the tuna steak dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Spread sesame seeds evenly on a plate. Press the tuna steak onto the seeds to form a crust on all sides.
Heat olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, sear the tuna steak for about 1-2 minutes per side, aiming for a rare to medium-rare center.
In a small bowl, whisk together fresh orange juice, lime juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, and red chili flakes to create the spicy citrus sauce.
Remove the tuna from the skillet and slice it into serving portions.
Drizzle the spicy citrus sauce over the tuna slices and serve immediately.
