INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Ahi Tuna Steak
2 tablespoons Sesame Seeds
1 teaspoon Fresh Ginger
1 tablespoon Lime Juice
1 teaspoon Low Sodium Soy Sauce
1 teaspoon Sesame Oil
PREPARATION
Pat the Ahi tuna steak dry using paper towels. Season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Spread the sesame seeds evenly on a plate. Press the tuna steak into the seeds on both sides to form a crust.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the tuna steak and sear it for about 1-2 minutes per side for a rare to medium-rare finish, adjusting to your preference.
While the tuna is cooking, prepare the ginger-lime sauce by combining the grated fresh ginger, lime juice, low sodium soy sauce, and sesame oil in a small bowl. Mix well to blend the flavors.
Once seared, remove the tuna from the skillet and let it rest for a minute. Slice the tuna thinly against the grain.
Drizzle the ginger-lime sauce over the tuna slices or serve it on the side for dipping. Enjoy immediately.
