INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Tuna Steak
1 tablespoon Sesame Seeds
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
1 tablespoon Lime Juice (from about 1/2 lime)
1/2 teaspoon Sriracha Sauce
1/2 teaspoon Ground Ginger
1 tablespoon Scallions, chopped
1 cup Steamed Broccoli
PREPARATION
Pat the tuna steak dry with a paper towel. Season lightly with a pinch of ground ginger.
Spread 1 tablespoon of sesame seeds on a small plate. Press both sides of the tuna steak into the seeds to form an even crust.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Once the oil is hot, place the tuna steak in the pan.
Sear the tuna for about 1.5 to 2 minutes on each side for a rare to medium-rare finish, or adjust the cooking time to your preferred doneness.
While the tuna cooks, prepare the spicy citrus sauce by mixing low-sodium soy sauce, lime juice, 1/2 teaspoon sriracha sauce, remaining ground ginger, and chopped scallions in a small bowl.
Remove the tuna from the skillet and let it rest for a minute. Drizzle the spicy citrus sauce over the tuna or serve it on the side.
Serve the seared tuna alongside a cup of steamed broccoli for a balanced, nutrient-dense meal.
